Consolation Prize
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 came to you
My conscience clean
Blood on my knees
The moral of the story
Is don't walk away again
I called you out
To see my bow
Our final scene
The moral of the story
Is don't look away again
To find a better conversation
I saw you there
Your friends aware
Without a care
The moral of the story
Is don't lie to me again
To find a better conversation
So I can be your consolation prize
I ran away
To stand my ground
Look what I found
The moral of the story
Is don't walk away again
To find a better conversation
So I can be your consolation prize
To find a better conversation
No, I'll never be your consolation prize
