Winner of the 2016 Ship and Anchor Song Writing Contest lyrics He stabbed the ground with a cold kitchen blade Knealt in the fields amongst the bales of hay A will to be heard a power undisturbed We think the neighbours might talk Mother sighed and sipped at her gin Saw the mounds of attention headlines brought in Listen close son listen well All our neighbours can go straight to (Hell!) (Chorus) This God damn home it spins too fast Knocking down what’s in its path Of my opinion we can stop This slab of blood, this lazy rock So we dressed our best held our heads up high Never shed a tear you must never let them see you cry Say it’s pride, your will to be heard These skeletons surround me, they tell me I’m absurd (Chorus) This God damn home it spins too fast Knocking down what’s in its path Of my opinion we can stop This God damn home it spins too fast Knocking down what’s in its path And I don’t care if the neighbours talk No I don’t care if the neighbours talk (Instrumental) Well it has no brakes no credence here Runs on gas and it runs on fear Unhinge the ground and open wide Let us all climb deep inside (Chorus) This God damn home it spins too fast Knocking down what’s in its path Of my opinion we can stop This God damn home it spins too fast Knocking down what’s in its path And I don’t care if the neighbours talk No I don’t care if the neighbours talk I don’t care if the neighbours talk (Repeat many times)

ere at McHollis and Holmes We found a crow frozen at the base of the tower It’s wings spread out like someone you might know From Sunday school or the man above your kitchen table I showed the father saw my hands diseased Sin and sickness burried in the breeze That carried the bids spirit far from me (Chorus) Say your graces show your fears The things they’ll teach you all for years In the morning find the sheep Pray to the Lord your soul to keep Here at McHollis and Holmes We found each other like fools in the basement Our hands stretched out like morning mass An attempt to cleanse one another The pastor saw through the dim old bulbs Boxed my ears and he cursed me out Child save yourself with these simple words (Chorus) Say your graces show your fears The things we’ll teach you all for years Clean your sins and bare your soul From down below Say your graces show your fears Hide your wicked soul for years In the morning find the sheep Pray the Lord your soul to keep Say your graces show your fears The things we’ll teach you all for years Clean your sins and bare your soul From down below In the morning find the sheep Pray the Lord your soul to keep Clean your sins and bare your soul Here at McHollis and Holmes
