Marty Byrne - Bed of Stones Lyrics

Does it fill you up
Feeding from his bowl?
Does it make you smile
Painting that face hole?

Is it wrong to ask
Why you've stayed so long?
It's a mammoth task
An unmade bed of stones

To escape

We can play a game
Pack your things
And head for the border
Head for the border

Come on take my hand
Like you took my hand before
You watched over me

So I hope you understand
I can't bare to see you like this

It's a bitter pill
A silent padded cell
Medicate yourself away, away

It makes me sick
We're all part of it
But no one has anything to say

To escape

We can catch the sun
It's just early evening
You still have time
You still have time

Come on take a stand
Like you stood before
You protected me
So I want you to be free

Whatever you understand
I can't bare to see you like this
