Lyrics
Battery Kinzie
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 woke up one morning
All my fingers rotting
I woke up a dying man without a chance
I came to your window
Threw a stone and waited
At the door, a stranger stood
The stranger's voice said nothing good
I turned to walk the frozen ground
Alone, all the way home
Wide-eyed walker
Do not wander
Do not wander
Through the dawn
Both my eyes are fading
No light in the evening
Planted like a seed in sand and drowned in rain
Watch you for an hour
He kept you beneath him
He kept you on lock and key
He paid the wage you sent to me
And wastes the day so idly
Alone, all the way home
Wide-eyed walker
Do not wander
Do not wander
Through the dawn
Wide-eyed walker
Do not wander
Do not wander
Through the dawn
