The Longer I Lay Here

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.

One, two, three, one ready go

You're up with the sunrise

And down when the work's been done

Your excellence industry

Diligence naturally

I would like to be you

Just for a few habit-forming years

Laziness cuts me like fine cutlery

I need a miracle, someone to help me

Help myself

Sweet Jesus, I need you

Forgive me this sin

Not hookers or heroin, gambling or gin

It sounds so ridiculous, but I just can't lick this

I need a miracle, someone to help me

Help myself

Someone to help me

Help myself
