[Verse 1]
You lean your teeth against the rail and push
You close your eyes and let the sewage wash
Over and into every blessed crack
Barely holding out for the coming sack
And that's just how it is, I hate to tell you, how it will be
And no one’s ever deserved more than you to be set free

[Verse 2]
The faint knocking of kingdom come
When only God knows what you've done
Sweet nothing in the desert sun
With the promise of a glass bead under your tongue
And that's just how it is, baby, how it will be
And no one’s ever deserved more than you to be set free

[Break]
You could have been someone
But we had plans for you
Climb into the back seat
We'll all go smiling to

[Bridge]
(The dust, the dust, the dust, the dust)
(The dust, the dust, the dust, the dust)
Master, I'm coming home
(The dust, the dust, the dust, the dust)
(The dust, the dust, the dust, the dust)
Master, we're on our way home
(The dust, the dust, the dust, the dust)
Master, I'm coming home
(The dust, the dust, the dust, the dust)
Master, I'm coming home
[Verse 3]
And that's just what he said, babe
When they pulled him from the car
"Do not cry for these children
It was written in the stars"
And that's just how it is, baby, how it will be
And no one’s ever deserved more than me to be set free
