‘Don’t rub Salt in the Wound’ by Toby

Don’t rub salt in the wound
Why build borders?
Haven’t they been through enough?
Why should they try?
If a border will stop them anyway?
Don’t rub salt in the wound

Don’t add insult to injury
If we won’t help,
They will have nowhere to go
Why build detention centres?
They are worse than the journey
Why should they try?
If they have free life taken from them
Don’t add insult to injury

Don’t kick them while they’re down
Why treat them like criminals?
Why lock them away?
When they’re just trying to be safe
Why treat them so terrible?
Don’t kick them while they’re down

Don’t kick them while they’re down.

Don’t add insult to injury.

Don’t rub salt in the wound.
