Ready To Die
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.
Got a key west shown and it won’t let go
Got a key west shown and I hate it so.
I’m shooting for the sky
Because I’m ready to die,
Die, die.
It’s an lonesome town and it’s got me down
What a luxury to wear this frown.
I’m shooting for the sky
Because I’m ready to die,
Die, die.
Now this lonely skin is wearing thin
How I hate in judge of the world I’m in.
I’m shooting for the sky
Because I’m ready to die,
Die, die.
I’m shooting for the sky
Because I’m ready to die,
Die, die.
