Metal mothers
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.
Tune in rock star, there's no dark spot running around your face
you find time to get laid
you find ways to get paid
you don't see no busted rainclouds watering up your days
and so set in your ways
and so fixed in your gaze
you're calling out for more
you're breaking out in time
it sounds just like a war
and everybody's blind
you're digging out some more
and now it's time to fly
sleep? sound in the ghost town away
and you can just stay
a terrible way
hanging out there, areas of gray
got most of it motioned away
got a life to lead oceans away
Tune in rock star, there's no dark spot running around your face
you find time to get laid
you find ways to get paid
you don't see no busted rainclouds watering up your days
and so set in your ways
and so fixed in your gaze
