Lyrics

Prig

[Verse]

All the hand and other land

And all I've done to get along

All the still unopened mail

Made me harder than the ground

All that fire illuminate

It left me miles from anywhere

Hiding over there

Even what I can't see

I could find in anyone

As long as their in there

I will never fail
