Lyrics
House of Straw
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.
Hold the hand of a liar
It must be easier
Your dreams he fought to conquer
Was there ever anything
Years weigh upon my mothers face
Every single day
Memories that I will not erase
You ruin my family
Her pride beat into submission
And everyday she suffers
She's under the spell and the power
Of someone who hurts her
He's under the guise of a man
But truly he's a coward
Empowered by the feeling he gets
From seeing others
Who cower at his hands
Just to prove he can
You say he lost his heart that night
He never had one anyway
You say your drinking starts the fights
Well I'm digging his fucking grave
Prove to me you can!
There was never anything
Fuck!
