I Volunteered For Overseas
For I Would Not Leave Such Friends As These
We Hid Our Eyes From A Thousand Suns
But We Faced The Mad Wind, Everyone
The Cloud Grew High As I Hid A Tear
For The Weapon Of Peace Was The Tool Of Fear
On Christmas Island
I Left The Truth So Far Away
Christmas Island
Freedom Took My Soul Away
I Breathed The Air, I Tasted Soil
Where The Forests Die And The Harvests Spoil
Now The Horse Is Gone, You Close The Gate
Say My Pain Is A Twist Of Fate
Well I Took Your Wages, That Is True
But You Never Warned Of What You Knew
On Christmas Island
I Left The Truth So Far Away
Christmas Island
Freedom Took My Soul Away
I Did My Duty And It Did Me Wrong
So The Time I Have May Not Be Long
I Will Not Leave Here Quietly
For The Fallout Fell And It Fell On Me
