The Drifters

Weave our web of freedom lust dodge just purpose create mistrust for we are the drifters no need to fear us A walk along freedoms edge for weekend or holiday brings you to our domain but no need to fear us for we are just a state of mind that you regret to leave behind Our feelings are natural not neon they come from our hearts not television house and garden maybe fine for some but we fine it hard to conceive forgive us as we choose our own dream For we are the drifters and our world is real no plastic margins of silver and gold or look a like wood to surround wall framed images of yesterday tomorrow or if only we could Painted or prints all the same after you've payed scenes in valleys a sunsets golden glow trees and rivers captured no breeze no flow collect them all if they could trying hard to cover bricks wallpaper or painted wood god knows the views from windows isn't any good For we are the drifters you don't fear us we live outside the frame of your mind and water a dream many have watched die born to run no made this way believing in ourselfs rain pain or anything without a frame So we are the drifters next time we go by give us a wave and say hi don't just stand there with mouth gaping wide.
