Rob Schackne #463 - After Neil Young's 'Powderfinger'

After Neil Young’s ‘Powderfinger’

Shelter me 
from the powder and the finger

the lawless lie scattered
on a silent plain

cover me with the thought
that pulled the trigger

remember me to my love
I know I'll miss her


the lawless lie scattered
at the silent schools

just think of me 

as one you never figured

the lawless lie scattered
on the silent streets

fade away so young
so much left undone

  1. Fabulous combo Rob - the lawless lying scattering on the silent plain and Powderfinger. Explosive!
