No Match
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.
I'm no match for honest men
And i'm no match for liars.
No match for those who have given up when they are feeling tired.
Can't put me up against the man who lets his fate just be.
I'm no match for those who love lord
And they are no match for me.
I 've been a long time finding out all where i don't belong.
And it's hard to say it's not escape
When i'm hanging right here in song.
I love my dreams, god knows i do,
And some of them love me.
And it' s raging through waking life will prove
Loving dreams keep one youthful and free.
Good god guides us,
Bad god leaves us.
Good sea hides us,
While good earth gives.
Good love fills us
Bad love bleeds us.
Bad fire kills us,
O, let me live.
Honesty's a hindrance when you want to be what's true.
You can be a match for me.
I'll be a match for you.
I'll stand here and shout it down and ripple with the strain
Surrounded by such violent light showering over this wide refrain.
The roll of earth, the pass of time.
As bad god leaves us free.
Well, age may be a match for you.
But it's no match for me.
