Lyrics
Humility Of Pain
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.
I know you know the humility of pain
But I must tell you to understand
The personalities of your fellows
As long as you keep your life
You got to know where to go
And where to stay away from
And worry that people are too meek
For you don't think you're so smart
And they're here to test you
It's only a personality
That's different than yours
Just stay out of trouble
That the wrong road or that you bring on yourself
So go to that place
I want to send you there
But I understand that my invitation
Will change your life
It's late in the night
Without electricity day (?)
I've got another place
And soon I might remember
But it's not like I didn't exist
I want you to decide to take the chance
I know you know the humility of pain
Well I must tell you to understand
The personalities of your fellow man
And decide who not to be with
