Lyrics
Master
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.
If the devil came, I beg your pardom
For I have not seen him
Seems the cause of pain, causes silence
Won't you let me in?
'Cause every man I've seen to fight
He fights himself alone
And every burden every strike
Is a lesson to behold
May he come, to see that I have grown
May he come and battle me alone
If the devil came, I beg your pardom
For I have not seen him
Seems there's any range, you'd go on hiding
Fuel the fire within
'Cause every hand I've learned to bite
Is a harvest that I've sown
And every word you burn to write
Is a mark that you must own
May he come, to see that I have grown
May love come and dance within your bones
May love come and dance within your bones
Master of your own hearbeat
Be the change that you long to see
Master of your own hearbeat
May the sun that shines, shine for thee
May the sun that shines, shine for thee
Oh come on child, take it as it is
We're all here for a little while
With the stones and the sticks
Well come on child now, don't be scared of this
Well life is still a blessing
We all ruin; we all reach
Yeah come on child, don't be scared of this
Oh life is still a blessing
We all ruin; we all reach
We all reach
