Cain And Able
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'm sick of chasing after things
I'd rather them chase after me
Keeping up is bound to let me down
There's a million ways to skin a cat
I put my choices in a hat
Picked a few and threw the bad ones out
I know now
So if you want me
You better knock me down
Cause i ain't easy
And this ain't hallowed ground
I've been thinking about old cain and able
Sitting at a breakfast table
Talking about the way things used to be
Well, able looked at cain and said
"all that shit was in your head"
I like to think that cain was hard to please
But i know now
So if you want me
You better knock me down
Cause i ain't easy
And this ain't hallowed ground
Oh oh oh oh oh
She said "no one will love you more than me"
I looked at her
She looked at me
I think she's waiting for me to believe
I wish that love was all it took
I'd fall into you if i could
Hoping for a graceful recovery
But i know now
So if you want me
You'd better knock me down
Cause i ain't easy
And this ain't hallowed ground
