Wall Of Arms
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 woke up with a loved one's eyes upon me
Loved one's arms around me
Oh...She's my one and only
I grew up in the bosom of my family
Eight strong arms around me
Oh...from the seed they've grown me
And I thank those
Those who kept me company
They are a wall of arms around me
Oh...it is they who are my army
Oh… it is they who are my army
Through these eyes
There's no god above me
No devil below me
No purgatory, no pearly gates
The worms are what await me
It's only me that can forgive me and
I have faith, oh...I have faith
I have faith, oh...I have faith
In those who put up with me
She's my one and only
If I'm the seed they've grown me
They who are my army
The wall of arms around me
