Cold Hands
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.
Subconsciousness been splayed on cankered brains
We get along and their very boones decay
Try to find what little else remain
My heart still beating but I'm feeling so restrained
You try to make a living by using what you got
But the way that it's been going
Well you gonna get shot
He's an old cold hand
Missfortune passed down from long times ago
Been rendered senseless in a temple made of gold
I heard you're really out here all alone
I'm stuck in limbo and you're perched atop a throne
You try to make a living by using what you got
But the way that it's been going
Well you better run fast
He's an old cold hand
Subconsciousness been splayed on cankered brains
We get along and their very boones decay
Try to find what little else remain
My heart still beating but I'm feeling so restrained
You try to make a living by using what you got
But the way that it's been going
Well you gonna get shot
He's an old cold hand
You try to make a living by using what you got
But the way that it's been going
Well you better run fast
He's an old cold hand
He's an old cold hand
He's an old cold hand
