They got me stuck here at the border
They say I brought the bomb
In the middle of disorder
Another hour passes on
Incarcerated in the white room
I don't belong to anyone
Everything's been taken
Can't even see the sun
Could you be patient with a stranger
Try and love someone
On the path of deportation
Incarcerated one
I hear someone yelling papers
Now they're swabbing at my feet
They look at me as if I'm guilty
Then they hand me the receipt
They got me in their system
They say it's done by rule of law
But I'm a citizen of nowhere
Says Agent Cavanaugh
Could you be patient with a stranger
Maybe try and feel someone
On the path of deportation
I'm the incarcerated one
Could you be patient with a stranger
Maybe show 'em a little fun
At the brink of annihilation
Are you the incarcerated one
