lyrics

we're born from the ground
emerging as omen
and the silent bars of time hold on to our throats.
we find ourselves thinking of freedom
while told there's no more
while the laws that we learn when we were younger
sink to the floor.
we question the rules of our culture
and don't ask for more
while the people that chase all the power
vanish
as we hit the road

we're masters of the road
and you don't know us
cause all you do is do as your told
and it works for you
but this won't do us any good
so we go away
and build up a farm where we can sleep
where money can't buy you nothing
and start up a beautiful garden where we can make
the same mistake again.

we come in to town
the doors are all closed
and a little light hangs over each porch.
the people inside
their minds are half frozen
and the little voices in their heads aren't theirs.
you don't even know what you want
but you ask for more
and the guiding light inside you dies
that's why
we're masters of the road
and you don't know us
cause all you do is do as your told
and it works for you
but this won't do us any good
so we go away
and build up a farm where we can sleep
where money can't buy you nothing
and start up a beautiful garden so we can make
the same mistakes again.
