Greg MacPherson - Concrete lyrics
[Greg MacPherson - Concrete lyrics]
The cities on the coast
I watched the seasons come and
Bounce right off the street
Meet me down by the burned
Out shell of a town
And I’ll take you out for something to drink
I want to fall asleep somewhere
Warm and not afraid
We were thrown out running
We were all so young
We were frozen over and bent like wire
I watched the shadows break through
A hole in the wall
And never made a sound until
They lit the fire
Pull me close with arms of steel
And put me in my place
I want to fall asleep somewhere
Warm and not afraid
I’ll be there when the
Morning isn’t so concrete
And the condolences aren’t faltering
In the court yard
Thinking cold with your mother’s
Eyes opened half
I’ll be the one with the next
Ten years stretched on my face
Pull me close with arms of steel
And put me in my place
Hold me close and tell me why
Wear it on your sleeve
Pull me close with arms of steel
And put me in my place
I want to fall asleep somewhere
Warm and not afraid
