Lyrics
Play Your Part
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.
Their sad little eyes that make me wanna cry lacerates my heart
The way that the skin looks all sunken in, nauseates my emotions
The cry for help that makes me want to fix it all
The need for the cavalry to ride in and save the day
You can try to walk on by
You can turn your thoughts away
You can ride the wave of denial
And let them suffer another day
Cut through your heart until it pays
Don’t play your part keep your own ways
You can try to walk on by
You can turn your thoughts away
You can ride the wave of denial
And let them suffer another day
I can’t bleed anymore, I can only give so much till I’m done
I can’t let this go away, even though I could ride away in the sun
Under siege over looked seen as just another block in the road
Under siege over looked, reap and carry all that you can steal
