death by daylight - front yard / picking up a stone lyrics

front yard / picking up a stone
words and music © 1991 ronald joseph holohan, jr

t++th

right in the front of the yard
right in the front of the yard
speak a new message
sport a new trend
go inform the world from your yard

local partic+p+tion
talk loud
go on, go on, go on, go on, go on

right in the front of the yard
right in the front of the yard
throw judgement into the wind
go bring about change from the yard

abortion
contamination
the election
the choices go on and on and on

right in a town
just like yours
lived a man of emotion
he brought about change
dispelling his chains
the power is yours
the power is yours
the power is yours
whoa+oh, oh oh oh oh
whoa+oh, oh oh oh oh
whoa+oh, oh oh oh oh
whoa+oh, oh oh oh

the arms race
weapon rеduction
pollution
speak with your heart and make thе world a better place
from your yard

===

night after night it’s on tv
the world’s fate through an electron beam
all this fighting will never end
bloodshed always to be seen
homelessness will always exist
try to stop it but it persists
is it wrong to just ignore?
is it wrong to just resist?
i implore you

hands bound as they’re thrown to the ground
picking up a stone
an eye for an eye
a truth for a lie
picking up a stone
people gathered all around
a woman stabbed lying on the ground
why do we just watch this person die?
are there answers to be found?
i implore you

guns fire because of desire
picking up a stone
lay to waste because of race
picking up a stone
give to take
make to break
picking up a stone
aim for their head
turn our streets to red
picking up a stone

is there no more love left in this loveless world?
is there no more hope left, left in this hopeless world?
tell me i’m wrong
then gun me down
tell me i’m wrong
then beat me ‘til there’s no more sound

shooting drugs into their arm
children running from burglar alarms
someday we’ll see what we’ve done
someday we’ll see what’s going on
it’s up to you
hands bound as they’re thrown to the ground
picking up a stone
an eye for an eye
a truth for a lie
picking up a stone
guns fire because of desire
picking up a stone
lay to waste because of race
picking up a stone
give to take
make to break
picking up a stone
aim for their head
turn our streets to red
picking up a stone
their hands bound as they’re thrown to the ground
picking up a stone
an eye for an eye
my truth for your lie
picking up a stone
picking up a stone
picking up
picking up
oh
picking up a stone
picking up a stone
