Lyrics
Burning Wife
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 was born in a world where men power's strong
Nothing but a wife, less than animals
They've burned my face, burned my flesh,
Corroded my flesh, acid on my face
Reduced to slavery, I've got nothing else to say
Rebellion is a crime, soon to be a burning wife.
