Pride Takes a Fall
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.
For love, I'm doing your battles on the lawn
Questions, they come at me all sides, all around
You say you might as well be there and silent, underground
If peacocks strolling over, laughing at you, long and loud.
Almost has never been good enough for you
Good try, my love won't ever be good enough for you
You say you might as well be there and silent, underground
If peacocks stolling over, laughing at you, long and loud.
My love, I'm doing your battles on the lawn
Face them and only your pride will take the fall
Don't say you might as well be there and silent, underground
Oh, you'll be over this wall before the peacocks find delight.
