Lyrics
Poor Man's Poison
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.
Took these hands away
Just to rest for the writings of today
I walk alone, holding price on fate
Singled out as lost, they'd say
As trials are forgotten
Their crimes fall short to pay
Our captain is now waking
And never fails to say
That a poor man's poison
Could be anything that you love
When all that you know is more than you need
Some better off are alone
If you failed before to rise
Would you stand again and fight?
Or cower down, losing everything
Your brothers know you to love
As trials are forgotten
Their crimes fall short to pay
Our captain is now waking
And never fails to say
That a poor man's poison
Could be anything that you love
When all that you know is more than you need
Some better off are alone
That a poor man's poison
Could be anything that you love
When all that you know is more than you need
Some better off are alone
Some better off are alone
