lyrics

LEAVE THE BODIES WHERE THEY LAY
SAVE YOUR STRENGTH FOR THE LIVING
WE’LL BE BACK ALONG THIS ROAD SOMEDAY
IF THE LAND IS WILLING

WE NEED TO KEEP ON MOVING
FOR THERE’S WATER TO FIND
MANY LIVES ARE RELYING ON US
MORE THAN THESE FEW WE LEAVE BEHIND

HIT THE ROAD AND DON’T LOOK BEHIND
THE DEAD WON’T SEE YOU GO

STEEL YOURSELVES, MEN AND WOMEN
FOR OUR JOURNEY IS UNKNOWN
FORGET YOUR HOME AND EVERYTHING YOU ONCE LOVED
FINDING WATER IS OUR ONLY GOAL

PRAY TO ANY GOD YOU THINK IS ABOVE
ASK THEM NOT TO CALL YOU HOME

WE ARE NOT SAVAGES
WE’RE JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE...
