Lyrics
Heart Of The Matter
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.
He's not getting the rush anymore
Used to take one but now he needs four
Its medication for his adult add
He's zoning out on the family life
Never playing with the kids; h not talking to his wife
Wherever he is, it ain't where he wants to be
Well he's not giving up a reputation he's been working on all the time for so long
Well he ain't coming back
Always on the need for another score
Used to be up front now he's back door
Trading it in for a part time love affair
He said he'd sell everything just for one more chance
Dance with the Devil but the Devil aint gonna dance
And when he turns his back, it won't be there yeah
Well he's not giving up a reputation he's been working on all the time for so long
Well he ain't coming back
Well he had everything and he's traded it in for just a little more
Well he's not giving up a reputation he's been working on all the time
No going back across the line
he's not giving up a reputation
Ya know he's been working on all the time for so long
