“No Gods No Masters” is the second single and title-track from Garbage’s seventh studio album. The single and the music video, directed by Scott Stuckey, was released on April 28th 2021.

[Verse 1]
Be kind, beware
Be good, don't be scared
Nothing lasts and no one stays
The same forever, so accept the change
[Pre-Chorus]
Where the wind blows, round and round in circles
Where the wind blows, round and round in circles
[Chorus]
The future is mine just the same
No master or gods to obey
I'll make all the same mistakes
[Verse 2]
Save your prayers for yourself
'Cause they don't work and they don't help
The things we do, thе things we don't
The things we lovе, the things we lost
[Pre-Chorus]
Where the wind blows, round and round in circles
Where the wind blows, round and round in circles
[Chorus]
The future is mine just the same
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
No master or gods to obey
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
I'll make all the same mistakes
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
Over and over again
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
Over and over again
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
[Bridge]
All our friends, all our lovers, all our babies
All our friends, all our lovers, all our babies
[Chorus]
The future is mine just the same
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
No master or gods to obey
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
I'll make all the same mistakes
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
Over and over again
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
Over and over again
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
[Outro]
You want what's mine, I want what's yours
I want what's mine that once was yours
You want what's mine, I want what's yours
I want what's mine that once was yours
Over and over again
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
Over and over again
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
Over and over, over and over
Over and over again
(Where the wind blows, round and round in circles)
The future is mine just the same
No master or gods to obey
No Gods No Masters was written by Shirley Manson & Butch Vig & Steve Marker & Duke Erikson.
No Gods No Masters was produced by Billy Bush & Garbage.
Garbage released No Gods No Masters on Wed Apr 28 2021.
[The track is] re-imagining our society for the future, for our children and not making the same mistakes over and over again and allowing greed to corrupt our thinking.
I tried to make sense of the world. I was trying to make sense of left and right, literally. Like why do some people vote right?...
I sing on this song, “No masters or gods to obey,” and I was like, “Great, ‘no gods no masters’ is the old punk slogan” and that seemed like the perfect title for the whole record because of what was going on socially at the time. There was just so much dissent and rebellions against governments and...
