Lyrics
The Useless Ladder
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.
The shamelessly desirous broken heart inside the
otherwise empty cabinet of doom
Weeps what it's modestly beating without.
The youngest grave will hold a crowd before
The people stuck on the train have a reason to doubt.
The shamelessly desirous broken heart inside the
otherwise empty cabinet of doom
Weakens our modern prophetic distractions.
Pretty paths to perfidy and crooked roads to valor
And people stuck on their rooftops
with a Government ladder.
