Fill the Shelters
It’s time to go when the police flood into the streets to split you and me
We’ll scream our goodbyes above the siren’s wail
Think of home when the billy clubs rattle your bones
The sticks and the stones
But your name’s written on my heart- hey
Clean the streets
Rinse out the blood
Explain it away
On your feet
I fall to my knees in a room with a hundred beds
Think of home when the billy clubs rattle your bones
The sticks and the stones
Together our love will fill the shelters
We’ll scream our goodbyes above the siren’s wail
Your name’s written on my heart- hey
