Howard Moss - Outside The Pale Lyrics
We grew up in a small town just outside the pale30 miles from Dublin riding with the railsThe times they were the eighties when things were kinda toughWhere jobs they weren't many we tried from dawn till duskThe rain it kept on pouring, pouring down on usDrowning in the darkness it washed away the dustOur hearts they were afflicted and heavy with the loadStill so dark and lonely it's a story long been toldOutside the pale, without fail, they've ruined all of usOutside the pale, without fail, they betrayed our trustThe boom it started coming and change was on the cardsThen people started moving and swimming with the sharksGreed to be the downfall of the tiger as he roaredThen back towards the old times like beforeWe left to move to Boston as my father did beforeWe had nothing in our pockets just pennies for our thoughtsSo we went and packed our suitcase and headed for the planeHoping for a new start and let go of this painOutside the pale, without fail, they've ruined all of usOutside the pale, without fail, they betrayed our trustOutside the pale, without fail, they've ruined all of usOutside the pale, without fail, they betrayed our trust
