Borderlines Lyrics by Ruby Gill

I’m gonna die with this frown on my face

2020

[Verse 1]
I just want to know
When I can board this train
The lack of change in landscape
Is greying out my brain
I just want to know
How much it costs to leave
A capitalist full-time job
And still, I have to grieve
The space I was raised in

[Chorus]
It's a borderline offence to keep me locked in
And I'm tired of all your bureaucratic nonsense
I'ma buy a ticket out here in the morning
What's the worst could happen? Maybe you'll deport me
But I guess you're making this decision easy
I just want to go home

[Verse 2]
I just want to know
When I can hug my mum
My stepfather is getting old
And someone's bullying his son
And I can't tell
Not 'til he's six feet tall
And forests that I used to love
Will mutate into shopping malls
That I was raised in

[Chorus]
It's a borderline offence to keep me locked in
And I'm tired of all your bureaucratic nonsense
I'ma buy a ticket out here in the morning
What's the worst could happen? Maybe you'll deport me
But I guess you're making this decision easy
I guess you're making this decision for me
I just want to go home
I just want to go home
