10* In the Yard – (Geri X, Eric McFadden) Performed by: Geri X - acoustic guitar, electric guitar, vocals / Eric McFadden - acoustic guitar, vocals / Delaney Davidson - mandolin / Wally Ingram - percussion

lyrics

in the yard, in the yard they will search
in the yard, in the yard covered with earth
in the yard with the insects and birds
in the yard with the ashes we burned

run wild darlin
they’ll never find you in the forest
I’ll be crying in the basement
cleaning bloody palms and fingers

in the yard, in the yard they will search
in the yard, in the yard covered with earth
in the yard with the insects and birds
in the yard, ashes we burned

hide deep under the ground there
where no one goes to seek a killer
I’ll bleach the floor and hide the pieces
and wash the fingerprints that you left behind

in the yard, in the yard they will search
in the yard with the ashes we burned
in the yard in the yard with the insects and birds
in the yard, covered with earth

it’s over now and what’s done is done
like a fugitive, I’ll live
my life on the run
shed no tears, don’t cry for me
let my memory fade
what is, is
and what shall be, shall be

so run, run run
run run wild
run run run
in the yard
in the yard with the insects and birds
