Ten Shades
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.
A promise of love or the spell you were under
get you kind every week here
undo these buttons i'll stitch you up down the middle
as bad as it gets you can always eject
but the passengers - they'll all go down
don't say you'd go that far
for some it's easy
If you're looking for a soul
you can have mine
if you're looking for a soul
ten shades blacker than your own
So hold out your arms i'll give you a number
now that the daily feed's here
red painted walls and floors it's all for a reason
be right back with a gun and a sack
need them when you've taken enough to react
seems strange you'd go that far
for some it just gets easier
If you're looking for a soul
you can have mine
if you're looking for a soul
ten shades blacker than your own
Seems strange you'd go that far
for some i guess it's easier
seems strange you'd go that far
for some i guess it's easier
