Get Me Back

Get Me Back (The BeWells)
Get me back to the place I called home
Memories haunting these years spent alone
Take me back to the loved ones I'd known
Laid to rest in fields marked with stone
I'm ready now as they bring my last meal
For what I've done it's part of the deal
Twenty years running no time to feel
'Til I did time behind concrete and steel
With righteous anger I took my friend's life
Caught with the girl who would be my wife
There in the midst of confusion and strife
Silenced their pleas with the edge of my knife
I had one last dream of her before day
If she could only have lived life that way
One final walk with my last words I'll say
Blood on my hands forever washed away
Get me back to the place I called home
Memories haunting these years spent alone
Take me back to the loved ones I'd known
Laid to rest in fields marked with stone
Bury me there in that field marked with stone
Get me back to the place I called home
Memories haunting these years spent alone
Take me back to the loved ones I'd known
Laid to rest in fields marked with stone
I'm ready now as they bring my last meal
For what I've done it's part of the deal
Twenty years running no time to feel
'Til I did time behind concrete and steel
With righteous anger I took my friend's life
Caught with the girl who would be my wife
There in the midst of confusion and strife
Silenced their pleas with the edge of my knife
I had one last dream of her before day
If she could only have lived life that way
One final walk with my last words I'll say
Blood on my hands forever washed away
Get me back to the place I called home
Memories haunting these years spent alone
Take me back to the loved ones I'd known
Laid to rest in fields marked with stone
Bury me there in that field marked with stone
