Road Kill

by Katie Jane Garside

on Lullabies In A Glass Wilderness (2007), Lalleshwari / Lullabies In A Glass Wilderness (2005)

Mother, pick the pieces up
Broken child, a broken cup
Endless journey, big machines
Stolen thunder, stole our dreams

Roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill

Burning headlamp, blinding eyes
Motorway roar in drowning cries
Locked down ginger, standing up
Motorway girl is giving up

Roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill

Found a shoe beside the road
Found no footprint in the snow
Little step I'd beckon home
This one who lost her right to roam

Roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill

Mother, pick the pieces up
Broken child, a broken cup
Foreign pictures foreign frame
Motorway girl without a name

Roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill, roadkill
