Jeremy James - Kilcrease Road Lyrics

Hey you with the salty cheeks
Why don't you come sit down with me
Why don't you rest your weary head
Who's gonna bless the newly dead

Who made the rules that never bend
Even when the scales seem your friend
Who's gonna feed the hungry lamb
Who's gonna hold her lonely hand

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

There's a half drank beer on the front porch
And a breaking heart just through the door
Where's the place you once called home
Where's the love she'll never know

Kilcrease Road, a cloud of dust
All these cars left out to rust
A broken fence, a barking beast
A shotgun shell laid at his feet

Who made the rules that never bend
Even when the scales seem your friend
Who's gonna quench the vengeful thirst
Would the world be any worse

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Picture this inside a frame
There are some things that will remain
Like the shirt stretched across your chest
Says baby I love you to death

Kilcrease Road, a cloud of dust
All these cars left out to rust
A broken fence, a siren's wail
What to do when it all fails

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
