Stoney Plains

Me down by the creek
The leaves are falling the birds are all calling, and I can't be seen
A thought runs through my head
With all of my sorrow, no hope for tomorrow, I wish I were dead

I'm like the mice
Run for my life
With nowhere to run or hide
Why can't I be
Down by the creek

Me down by the creek
The sky is falling, the demons are calling to me in my sleep
Alone under my bed
It makes me wonder how all of my blunder makes me wish I'm dead

The prairie dogs cry
When the wind hits their eyes
And I doubt that they'll ever survive
Wish I could be
Down by the creek

So you say I'm a lost soul
Though I told you I've always been true
You tell me, Boy, you'd better lay yourself down
'Til the madman comes out, don't you know

Can anyone save me
From this shame I'm living?
I gotta get out of this place
Wish I could be
Down by that creek
