Lyrics
Curse
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.
Like a plastic doll
that's how you treat some people
from your town.
The daily life of evil
never see the people
on the street.
There's a curse in your town.
Dress it up, bring it 'round.
They see you over
These are her sleeves
Gaze of destruction
of destruction
I'm a man
I'm a ruler of this world
There's a curse in your town.
Dress it up, bring it 'round.
There's a curse in your town.
Dress it up, bring it 'round.
