The Fence Matthew Shepards Song by Peter Katz Lyrics
(Verse One)
Look at this now
Me on my own
Here with the stars
Sleeping alone
It's just like the times
When I was not grown
(Verse Two)
But now things have changed
It's somehow more cold
It's somehow more strange
I'm somehow less old
I think once I find my shoes
I'd like to go home
(Chorus)
Come out and find me I'm here on the fence
I'm only just slightly broken and bent
(Verse Three)
Now come on you two
It's time to go in
Let's call it a tie
So everyone wins
Our mothers are calling
You know we're all boys in the end
(Chorus)
Come out and find me I'm here on the fence
I'm only just slightly broken and bent
This game of go hide and no seek's been okay
But seems I had plans with my family today
(Bridge)
Now come on you stars
Shine now for me
Light up this night
This darkness I see
I must confess
I'm somewhat afraid
I mean no offence
But I wish to leave this place
(Chorus)
Come out and find me I'm here on the fence
I'm only just slightly broken and bent
This game of go hide and no seek's been okay
But seems I had plans with my family today
(Ending)
Come out and join me I'm here on the fence
It's an outdoor adventure, a one night event
The stars and the moon in the sky are just right
If we can keep our eyes open, we'll make it through the night
Look at this now
Me on my own
Here with the stars
Sleeping alone
It's just like the times
When I was not grown
(Verse Two)
But now things have changed
It's somehow more cold
It's somehow more strange
I'm somehow less old
I think once I find my shoes
I'd like to go home
(Chorus)
Come out and find me I'm here on the fence
I'm only just slightly broken and bent
(Verse Three)
Now come on you two
It's time to go in
Let's call it a tie
So everyone wins
Our mothers are calling
You know we're all boys in the end
(Chorus)
Come out and find me I'm here on the fence
I'm only just slightly broken and bent
This game of go hide and no seek's been okay
But seems I had plans with my family today
(Bridge)
Now come on you stars
Shine now for me
Light up this night
This darkness I see
I must confess
I'm somewhat afraid
I mean no offence
But I wish to leave this place
(Chorus)
Come out and find me I'm here on the fence
I'm only just slightly broken and bent
This game of go hide and no seek's been okay
But seems I had plans with my family today
(Ending)
Come out and join me I'm here on the fence
It's an outdoor adventure, a one night event
The stars and the moon in the sky are just right
If we can keep our eyes open, we'll make it through the night
