Lyrics
Island Living
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Trudging through the murk and mire
Can’t find my way, can’t reach the end
Island decay and how it gets inside
My hands still shake from restless nights
Giving time not worth, withdraw from this world
I grit my teeth because of you
Consumed, hopeless, gutless, heartless pigs
You’d think these roads were paved in gold
But i stand alone with my back turned
Towards the sea, the salt corrodes my mind
Not gaining ground, there’s nothing left
Giving time not worth, withdraw from this world
I grit my teeth because of you
You drag me down (i can’t see you alive)
