Valley from KITTY & FRANK by Lucie Thorne

Valley

Climb here from the valley below
wait until it’s dark
’til that heavy roll of thunder starts

Storm coming to the valley below
I climb here above it all
high above the mud and brawl

Been down in a festering hull
and it plagues me every night
all those wish-I’d-never-seen-em sights

Been numb, I’ve been black and blue
and I’ve never been so sad
nor known of men so mean and mad

It’s no living in that valley below
yes I’ve been beaten night and day
and the rest I hope I’ll never say

Cold wind blowing in that valley below
just a streak of silver light
as morning sneaks up on the night

One more time from that valley below
the sky is grey across the land
your silver pistol in my hand
