Escaping

I do not have any pain
I did not complain
How do we get out? 
We met by a miracle
Let's flee to the West
This we can do
For the truth will kill us here
Our truth will end us
You are my life
I am your life
They built a wall round us
Round our city
To keep us in
But they cannot stop us
Will never control our hearts
Nor our will to escape
And prove them wrong
We will break their prison
And breach the wall
