Well I hit the street back in '81,
I found a heart in the gutter and a poets crown.
I felt barbed wire kisses and icicle tears,
Where have I been all these years ?
I saw political intrigue, political lies.
I'm going to wipe those smiles of self satisfaction
From there eyes
I will wear your white feather
I will carry your white flag
I will swear I have no nation
'Cos I'm proud to own my heart
I will wear your white feather
I will carry your white flag
I will swear I have no nation
'Cos I'm proud to own my heart
This is my heart
We don't need your uniforms
We have no disguise
For divided we stand, together we will rise
(All the children)
We will wear your white feather
We will carry your white flags
We will swear we have no nation
But we're proud to own our hearts
These are our hearts
You can't take away our hearts
You can't steal our hearts away
I won't walk away
I won't walk away
I won't walk away no more
No more.
