lyrics

Woe to the misfit wall
Angling in ever so slightly
Words painted on it fall
Pooling together colors brightly
On a basement window built to spread
Some light to underground
Woe to the misfit wall
the first to fall when the house burns down

Woe to the straightest wall
Towering high ever so proudly
They whom it shelters call
Out from the window so loudly
That the words sprayed on it
disappear with little chance to talk
Woe to the straightest wall
the last to move when it's time to walk

A battle rages under stormy skies
A tug of war for a book of lies
And the truth is easy to find
It's written under the spine

Pull out the pages carefully
Scrape off the glue stains that you see
When you finally get down to the heart
That's when two money grubbers grabbin' only for the covers
Go and tear the motherfucker apart

Hail to the ground below
Appearing straight to those who let it
Actually a bow
gentle but there for those who tread it
Far & wide so words may reach their home
And pass through every ear
Hail to the ground below
A shelter for those without fear
