Lyrics
Born To Hang
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 am born to hang
Well it's all healthy news
In a nutshell this means
That I'll never have to live like you
I am born to hang
But not to have kids
And to never be wed, no
To someone whom I don't even love
Hang the noose it'll naturally come loose
When you're born
When you're born to hang
Time is so strange
And love doesn't come, no
Or if it comes then it comes too late
And the song that we sing
It rings in our heads
It's flowing with dread
Because it's all that we know
Hang the noose, let it not be loose
When you're born to hang
Time is so strange
And love doesn't come
Or when it comes it comes too late
And the song that we sing
It sings in our heads
And it's flowing with dread
Because it's all we know
And the world is flowing in our head
