about

Original song about a harsh reality of life.

lyrics

The house on the corner
Yellow like the sun
What can you see there?
After that gun
Can you lay down a prayer?
When you’re learning to run

Blood on the pale walls
Broken windows
Can you still hear the dour calls?
Of the child-sized ghosts
Do they still walk the halls?
Or did they learn to let go?

Learning to Run Boys
May save your life
Strangers are near boys
So don’t die by the Knife
Learning to Run Girls
Might keep you alive
When Strangers are near girls
Better Run to survive

What can you see boys
When you fly to the sun
What can you see boys
When you’re faced with a gun
Do you lay down your toys?
When you’re learning to run

What can you see girls
When you fly to the sun
What can you see girls
When you’re faced with a gun
Do you lay down your pearls?
When you’re learning to run

Chorus

Verse Break

I will return one day
When I can handle the pain
To see where my kids played
And left that big stain
But for now I will keep away
Till its washed by the rain

Chorus
