Lyrics
Boyscout'n
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.
so stop and take it all in slowly
'cause this short glimpse is not the only
chance that you will have to see
all the ways that i can prove myself as worthy
to be the one and only true sure thing
sure thing
i can't believe i lent(?) my hand to help destroy and helpless man
maybe it's a long shot now, but still i say
should not survive this fall then i pray if i pray at all
that i could catch my breath and come away unscathed
away unscathed
i once believed you were my savior
but now you're nothing but a traitor
and still i'll wait for your return
i get the feeling i have waited
a whole lifetime in vain
a lot to lose with nothing to gain
i can't believe i lent(?) my hand to help destroy and helpless man
maybe it's a long shot now, but still i say
should not survive this fall then i pray if i pray at all
that i could catch my breath and come away unscathed
away unscathed
