Tom Ebelt songs
I've struggled with this song for a year - constantly changing the melody. Finally dropped two verses and merged some of the lines. Thanks to JB for his insight and his help with the finished product. I appreciate you Jer.
Song: Tom
Lead Guitar: Jerry
SAFE PLACE
It seems darkest before the morning
Running on the edge of the night
Ran out of money, you can feel the hunger
But here on the bus you're alright.
Daylight came while you were sleeping
Dreams and nightmares left behind
Open your eyes, and you're at the station
Collect the baggage in your mind.
(chorus)
Here on the bus at least you're doing something
Even with your heart beating so.
Knowing the truth child, can't help you now
And home just ain't a safe place to go.
Off the bus you see some other girls
One walks up and asks your name
Here on the streets, at least you're doing something
And every day it's just the same.
No one cares where you came from
And your body's something you just don't care about
But you've got money, and it turns out your heart
It's something you can live without.
(chorus)
Here on your own, at least you're doing something
Even with your heart turning cold
Knowing the truth child, can't help you now
And home just ain't a safe place to go - no, no, no
Home just ain't a safe place to go.
