MISSING
Burning tyre on the
Freeway, no one in sight
There’s a raging calm
Across the land tonight
Voice on the radio says
Another one’s down
It don’t matter anymore
Which side he’s on
Came to your place to see
If you’re alright
And the shadows danced
Across the stairway.
Flight after flight
And I was banging at your
Door but you weren’t
There anymore
And the G-man stepped
Into the light and said:
“This is war!”
Chorus:
Uzogijima (you will run away)
Well I’ve got to get
Through ‘cause I know
That you are near the end
Uzogijima (you will run away)
You’re missing
Uzogijima (you will run away)
Uzogijima kodwa
Awusekho umgodi
Wokucasha (you will run away
but there is no hole left for you to
hide in..)
When the big wind blows
The tree falls down but
The reed just bends
You’re missing…
Roadblock across my
Heart and a riot in my mind
‘Cause I know that you
Are out there somewhere
Trying to find a place to hide
The shadow of a ruthless
Hand is hunting for your soul
And tho’ I don’t know
Where you are
I’ll never let you go
Chorus:…
And I want you to know
That as things fall apart
I’m on the road to
Nowhere
