Hallowed Ground lyrics

Everybody's intent on killing someone

The streets are closed and there's a kid on the run

The bullets scream out from gun to gun

Everybody's intent on being someone

The cold and darkness of the criminal dawn

Wrapped in blankets, gotta keep themselves warm

A child in the arms of a teenage mum

Who will be there, who will be 

The next victim of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town

Sharing conversation, hoping things'll soon get better

While the children meet, got the world at their feet

Not knowing what's around the corner

Are we living for an uncertain future?

Down by the corner sits a broken man

Lives by the bottle, swears never again

Lost his money on the dogs and gin

Looks for his supper in garbage can

The kids hang around by the old school ground

Right by the river where the body was found

Throwing stones on hallowed ground

Who will be there, who will be 

The next victim of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town

Sharing conversation, hoping things'll soon get better

While the children meet, got the world at their feet

Not knowing what's around the corner

Are we living for an uncertain future?

Can you hear them calling?

In the cold and darkness of the criminal dawn

Wrapped in blankets, gotta keep ourselves warm

A child in the arms of a teenage mum

Who will be there, who will be 

The last victim of the criminal dawn?

Old friends meet on the edge of town

Sharing conversation, hoping things'll soon get better

While the children meet, got the world at their feet

Not knowing what's around the corner

Are we living for an uncertain future?

Old friends meet on the edge of town

Sharing conversation, hoping things'll soon get better

While the children meet, got the world at their feet

Not knowing what's around the corner

Are we living for an uncertain future?
