Lyrics
Sanctuary
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.
Times are tough, frustration
Need relief, medication
Gone to far, intoxication
Fight the urge, of temptation
Miles ago, no destination
Is a real, hallucination
Lose the dream, of stagnation
Feel so lost, despiration

Sanctuary
It's much too close, cantamination
Love and pain, and deviation
Just suck it all, ejaculation
It's much to late, for damnation

Sanctuary
When I was young,
My mother told me,
She said "Son,
Someday everything's gonna be alright.
There's no excape,
There's no salvation,
It's much to dark, for revelation."
