Bobby Long - The Songs The Kids Sing Lyrics

Beyond this place beyond the cafes and the choirs
lies the death of me
where the adults don't see, the boards start to creak
down this lonesome street
at the end of school we start the new rule
when the teachers leave
we don't see the chapel, we don't see the city
we gave away our dreams

Carry me far beyond this town
before I'm laid out in the ground for all of you to see
let me see that all of this is stone
and I shouldn't feel alone
and I shouldn't have to be
the song the kids sing

The kids shoot the wall speaking in that loose drawl
just in front of me
I want to rant and sing, but what good
would it bring to the factory
I want to turn this around
but I'm wedged in the crack with the hollow seed
who planted this madness
who planted this sadness all around me

I'm not from this town
I'm from another old town far to the east
it's close to my brother
it's close to my father, it's inside of me
