about

This song I wrote in 1991. The travelers were the outsiders who took up a gypsy lifestyle outside of stationary property-based society. They went from festival to festival, living within the ancient common law that was slowly being eroded away into a more policed state. Fueled by anger, both creative and destructive, as much as love, despondency as much as hope, struggling as warriors against de-humanization, claiming our right to live freely on the land, with a sense of truth, justice and vigor.

lyrics

Traveler Song
written performed and produced by Leopard Zeppard

a traveler,
looking for friends and a home and security
is still a traveler with no where to go
come lay down beside me with my bridges behind me
blame my age and say i don't know.

the tide,
patterns keep repeating all the anger in history
compelled to find some where to flow
but nor blind this time or drunk on innocence
just filled with the bitter goddess, Hope.

a stone,
dragging down the witch and a boy in his labyrinth
can't climb out of his own kaliedoscope.
A deviant's mind finds a more deviant kind
and the roots of all this deep below...

deep below,
deep below.

heartfelt, intelligent, witty - step into the wonderful slightly off key world of leopard zeppard.
