Motherless Land
The Virginmarys

We were riding out to meet the sun,

We were shaking from the things we've done,

We were breaking every pattern, Straying from the map

To make a new life on the run

We were sick of life behind a lens,

With it stripped of all its innocence

Watch the hands above the puppets make another war

For the benefit of their own ends

Motherless land, a couple pills in my hand,

To take me out of my mind

A couple we stand,

A couple pills in our hands

To take us out of my minds

Motherless land, a couple pills in my hand,

That take me out of my mind

A couple we stand,

A couple pills in our hands

To take us out of my minds

So we grew up with a fear of God,

Made guilty of the things we're not

We were lost in vicious circles,

Looking for a key,

Another door, another lock

And the sun was dancing on the lake,

There was only so much we could take

So we left it all to happen,

Left it all to chance,

With a passion that they could not shake

Motherless land, a couple pills in my hand,

To take me out of my mind

A couple we stand,

A couple pills in our hands

To take us out of my minds

Oh, take me out of mind

Oh, take me out of mind

Take me out of my mind

Take me out of my mind

Out of my mind yeah

We've assassinated pacifists,

As the peace was something to resist

With the history repeated one day to the next,

Another thousand on the list

So what are we without the fear?

And what are we without the shame?

And what are we when all is clear?

What are we without a name?

Motherless land, a couple pills in my hand,

That take me out of my mind

A couple we stand,

A couple pills in our hands

To take us out of my minds

Oh, take me out of mind

Oh, take me out of mind

Take me out of my mind

Take me out of my mind

Take me out of my mind

Out of my mind
