Cold Concrete Home by Melodie Yvonne Ramey
Sittin’ here listenin’ to industrial crickets
Folks walkin’ ‘round like they’re lost on a mission
And I never wanted to be stuck here this way
But here I sit, here I live, here I just stay
Factory made melodies lull us to sleep
And anti-emotion pills hide what we keep
But what I keep doesn’t need hid every day
I’m not scared what you’ll think of these things I say
Then I say softly please don’t let me be
Then I say softly just stay here with me
Cuddle me softly don’t leave me alone
Don’t make me go back to that cold concrete home
And again I hear humming of industrial crickets
Lost souls all around me just gettin’ their fixes
Use and repeat at least twice a day
To get through this shift in the least feeling way
Top level merchandise buys out our souls
We keep right on grinding just tryin’ to fill holes
Subconscious bribery “does us a favor”
And we just sit numbly wishing for a Savior
Then I beg softly please don’t let me be
Then I beg softly just stay here with me
Cuddle me softly don’t leave me alone
Don’t make me go back to that cold concrete home
Past twenty years gone yet here I’m still grinding
Don’t even think no more just obey blindly
Guess my life’s gone now and soon it’s my soul
This industrial nightmare has swallowed me whole
I begged you softly please don’t let me be
I begged you softly just stay here with me
Too late to save me now leave me alone
I’m safe and I’m used to my cold concrete home
