Motherland Lyrics - Singles - Silver Firs

horses and cattle 

the barrow's wheels rattle 

When all the birds fly south will you/we follow them too 

Braver than the others 

Kissed the neighbours daughters 

When all the birds fly south will you follow them too 

Cold and forgotten 

The wooden floor is rotten 

Did they steal our youth with all those machines 

The lichen ate all the stone 

The paths we knew (now) overgrown 

Did they steal our youth with all those machines 

woken from your dreams 

misguided motherland 

Your sons are no longer yours 

out of the windows of our tree house 

To the endless slopes around us 

We cherished our hopes
