Lyrics

When you were young you settled down,
digging holes within the ground...I see your tracks all over this town

You built it up stone by stone. Spilling blood and burying bone.
From earth and love you built your home.

When they drive you away at dawn.
(On and on, all the way. Gone tomorrow here today.)
The machine keeps rolling on and on.

Your sons and your daughters look to the sky.
Bearing gifts prepared to fly. It should’ve been enough I know.
The new man he waits outside your door.
You gather your things upon the floor. Take one last look around.

When they drive you away at dawn.
(On and on, all the way. Gone tomorrow here today.)
The machine keeps rolling on and on.
Days of promise have come and gone.
(On and on, all the way. Gone tomorrow here today.)
The shadows the old trees cast are long.

You were the one who gave us the name.
You were the one who started the flame.
