Water and Dust

[Intro]
Alright

[Refrain]
We are the children
Water and dust
We belong to mother
She don't belong to us
Slow wheel of justice
Grindin' fine
This highway is an old song line

[Chorus]
Every track eventually leads to water
Oh, they who fight and run away
Live to fight another day in the disorder

[Verse]
Some say I'm dyin'
Say I'm fixin' to kill
Say I'm learnin' to change
Say I never will
But tell me a day when a rooster don't crow
When a dingo don't howl
And the river won't flow

[Chorus]
Every track eventually leads to water
Oh, they who fight and run away
Live to fight anothеr day in the disorder

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Oh, great is thе sin when suffering's caused
By the jaws and claws of the institution
You suffer, I suffer
You bleed, I bleed
You and I, we both see red
And those who see through the eye of emu
Walk away from the castle of the dead

[Refrain]
We are the children
Water and dust
We belong to mother she don't belong to us
Slow wheel of justice
Grindin' fine
This highway is an old songline

[Chorus]
Every track eventually leads to water
Oh, and he who kills kinder man
Lives to die again and again and again

[Outro]
You can't break free from it
No, you can't break free from it
Well, you can't break free from it
