Times were changing

Eighteen years and fading

You'll forget the game

Each illusion

Wrapped in absolution

Live your life in weekends

But it's not the same

That there is nothing more

There is a how

Just like there is a door

And if there's not to be another way

You tell me why

Why

Why

Was a ship bound for america

And her name, "maersk dubai"

And so when no one else was looking

And the ship was safely moored

He waited for his moment

Then he quickly snuck on board

Then he found himself a hiding place

Between two crates of iron ware

And as for distant america

In his mind he was already there

But what he was unaware of

As they sailed away from shore

Was that there were other stowaways

And he was one of four

And meanwhile the
