Lyrics
Ne'er Do Well
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.
The stars are crossed in lines I can't define
The world spins its rhythms rattles and rhymes
Sway to the music ne'er do well
Sing to me softly ne'er do well
but come to me slowly ne'er do well
With a steady hand I will hold my own
Without a map, I'll always find my home
Where the blessed are now cursed
And the cursed are now blessed
And the ones who fall in the middle
Take home all the rest
Sway to the music ne'er do well
Sing to me softly ne'er do well
but come to me slowly ne'er do well
Come on, come now, I've come undone
My heart beats to the cadence
Unraveled and unsung
But I've got a voice, and it screams hell
Sway to the music ne'er do well
Sing to me softly ne'er do well
but come to me slowly ne'er do well
My ne'er do well
