Curses, Stones, and Rags Songtext
von The Quivering Palm

Can I justify all these things I hide?
Tried to nullify the wounds your promise dealt
I can′t describe the awesome pain I felt
And I don't wanna let it go

Won′t intercede, oh no

Every now and then I hear you have to bend
Over someone else's desk just to make ends meet
I used to be so proud of all your feats
But not so anymore

(You keep braggin' ′bout the sun so high
Without ever havin′ taken a walk outside)
Won't intercede
(I guarantee that your man won′t lie
Because the more we care the less we hide)
Do as you please
(So you brag about the sun so high
Never havin' taken a walk outside)
You′ll learn to live in curses, stones, and rags but
Who let the cat out of the bag?


Should I compromise? Should I close my eyes?
Or maybe analyze the words I've heard people say?
There comes a time when corporate slime must pay
I don′t think that time is now

(You keep braggin' 'bout the sun so high
Without ever havin′ taken a walk outside)
Won′t intercede
(I guarantee that your man won't lie
Because the more we care the less we hide)
Do as you please
(So you brag about the sun so high never havin′ taken a walk outside)
Down on your knees
(Guaranteed I know your man won't lie
The more we care the less we hide)
I hope they meet your needs
You′ll learn to live in curses, stones, and rags but
Who let the cat out of the bag?

On and on, this riddling romance
Rots away like dry October leaves
On and on, it trickles down
It trickles down and falls all over me


On and on, this riddling romance
Rots away like dry October leaves
On and on, it trickles down
It trickles down and falls all over me
Me
