There Stood the Fence |
There stood the fence that penned me in when I was younger |
This was the house where we all stayed |
There was a tree we used to hang out under |
This was the place where I played |
But now that’s gone so I have to wonder |
Is it worth the price we pay? |
A long range test has put us under |
And made us go away, go away… |
This was the town where all my friends and I had grown up |
The only place I’ve ever known |
A long gray street with some houses built on it |
Less than perfect but it was home |
Now it’s gone and I curse it in my darkness |
This is the cross I have to bear |
We pay the price of our own injustice |
We made us go nowhere |
Go nowhere, nowhere |
This was our earth our garden of Eden |
Took what we could and left her there bleeding |
And what became of the hopes and the dreams |
Did they die with us 'cause that’s how it seems |
Here comes the rain can’t you taste the acid? |
Or has it left you numb? |
This is the moral to the story I offer |
Can you hear me son… |
Or have you gone away |
Away |
Away |
