[Verse]
2
The war was lost
3
The treaty signed
4
I was not caught
5
Across the line
6
I was not caught
7
Tho many tried
8
I live among you
9
Well-disguised
10
I had to leave
11
My life behind
12
I dug some graves
13
You'll never find
14
The story's told
15
With facts and lies
16
I have a name
17
But never mind
18
[Chorus]
19
Never mind
20
Never mind
21
The war was lost
22
The treaty signed
23
There's Truth that lives
24
And Truth that dies
25
I don't know which
26
So never mind
27
(Arabic)
28
[Verse]
29
Your victory
30
Was so complete
31
Some among you
32
Thought to keep
33
A record of
34
Our little lives
35
The clothes we wore
36
Our spoons our knives
37
The games of luck
38
Our soldiers played
39
The stones we cut
40
The songs we made
41
Our law of peace
42
Which understands
43
A husband leads
44
A wife commands
45
[Verse]
46
And all of this
47
Expressions of the
48
Sweet indifference
49
Some called love
50
The high indifference
51
Some call fate
52
But we had names
53
More intimate
54
Names so deep
55
And names true
56
They're blood to me
57
Dust to you
58
There is no need
59
And this survives
60
There's Truth that lives
61
And Truth that dies
62
[Chorus]
63
Never mind
64
Never mind
65
I leave the life
66
I left behind
67
There's Truth that lives
68
And Truth that dies
69
I don't know which
70
So never mind
71
(Arabic)
72
[Verse]
73
I could not kill
74
The way you kill
75
I could not hate
76
I tried, I failed
77
You turned me in
78
At least you tried
79
You side with them whom
80
You despise
81
This was your heart
82
This swarm of flies
83
This was once your mouth
84
This bowl of lies
85
You serve them well
86
I'm not surprised
87
You're of their kin
88
You're of their kind
89
[Chorus]
90
Never mind
91
Never mind
92
I had to leave my
93
Life behind
94
The story's told
95
With facts and lies
96
You own the world
97
So never mind
98
[Chorus]
99
Never mind
100
Never mind
101
I live the life
102
I left behind
103
I live it full
104
I live it wide
105
Through layers of time
106
You can't divide
107
[Chorus]
108
My woman's here
109
My children too
110
Their graves are safe
111
From ghosts like you
112
In places deep
113
With roots entwined
114
I live the life
115
I left behind
116
[Verse 1 reprise] (with Arabic)
117
The war was lost
118
The treaty signed
119
I was not caught
120
Across the line
121
I was not caught
122
Tho many tried
123
I live among you
124
Well-disguised
