Eat The Dinner Off My Plate
Well I’ve been
Staying up trying to
Stay in touch with my mind
With your eyes they see me this time
And if there is a god above
I sure would have loved to ask where
On earth she was
Last night
I was calling out your name
Did you think I had gone insane?
My eyes they’re more than windows
More than shutters
Holding in my brain
You spoke like you know me well
Care so much for my inner health
Sometimes all you do is take
Eat the dinner of my plate
And confidence is what I’m not
I sure have been thinking a lot about my sister
Oh god how I’ve missed her
And I walk down my old Brigg street
In my head not with my feet
And I see her
She’s staring back at me
Well I am sorry if I’ve made mistakes
Fed you out to the pit of snakes
Sometimes all you do is take
Eat the dinner of my plate
Now I feel I’m growing old
Not like the stories I was told
More like the bones buried in yard
Fading away fading so
So I was calling out your name
Did you think I had gone insane?
My eyes they’re more than windows
More than shutters
Holding in my brain
You spoke like you know me well
Care so much for my inner health
Sometimes all you do is take
Eat the dinner of my plate
