Lyrics
The Playground
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.
Take a step outside
Try to save the day
Things are nearly dead where the devil plays
A disenchanting scene
Painted yellow-brown
By a distant tenancy
And I guess you'd have to be a martyr to live inside this desert place
I could only hope to last one hour in here, in here
The sun is beating down
Stronger than I've ever known it
The sun is beating down
Stronger than I've ever wanted
