A Piece Of Sky Lyrics - Beautiful South

(M. Greaves) 

No piece of sky 

For you Jimmy lad 

They always blame him 

They knew Jimmy was bad 

His own fault entirely 

To die without sound 

That's how it is 

One staring at the ground 

And he wears his isolation 

As a widow wears a shroud 

They hammered him with discipline 

Screaming out loud 

As they did with Jesus 

With hammer and with nails 

Now the cell is quiet 

And the moonlight is pale

No piece of sky 

For you Jimmy lad 

They always blame him 

They knew Jimmy was bad 

Tis own fault entirely 

To die without sound 

That's how it is 

One staring at the ground 

He's standing on the bedside chair 

The moonlight fills his cell 

No one ever peeked 

In jimmy's private hell 

His only friend, a makeshift rope 

His only key, his only hope 

His neck breaks so easily 

And he doesn't make a sound

No piece of sky 

For you Jimmy lad 

They always blame him 

They knew Jimmy was bad 

His own fault entirely 

To die without sound 

That's how it is 

One staring at the ground 

His only friend, a makeshift rope 

His only key, his only hope 

His neck breaks so easily 

And he doesn't make a sound 

No piece of sky 

No piece of sky
