I was no more than a kid When I decided to leave Started carving my own piece of this world Never look back They were dead weight to me Never look back The family business and wife to be From passivity and conformity, I broke free The strength is one
I learned to follow the wind To prosperity and so-called sin I kept that skull and crossbones flag unfurled Never look back Travelled light, came down hard Never look back Secret handshakes and member cards No tie to bind me for too long No one’s father, no one’s son The strength of one
With every step Down every road I’ve been walking away from you But every trip around the world It’s like coming back to you With every step Down every road I’ve been walking away from you And here it is, the final wall Now I’m coming back to you
