Lyrics

Look up look down by Julia Messenger

As hungry dogs
Cry like wolves
And children scream
And run in hoods
I've a kindled eye
That I celebrate
But I'll bear no bone
Of the love I hate

Too many weeks
You broke the flow
Murmur the word
and let love go
With a fervent prayer
As heavenly aches
What's mine is theirs
Is rightly paid


CH

Go ask the children
In the street
Bang on dad's door
With dirty feet
It's a silent hearth
Without a fire
When you're alone
The outcome's dire

CH
