Worse or Better

Lit like a candle and we burned so bright Gods showed their faces and we rolled the dice Dove to the bottom, drank so deep, blood black water put us straight to sleep We prayed for rain and we turned our eyes to the clouds When the sun came out, man, we screamed out loud Night becomes the dawn, we were so right, we were so wrong Worse or better, looks like forever is not that long The seeds that were planted grew over our heads Closed like a coffin to protect the dead Struggled at the shackles, strained at the ropes Tried to untangle but there was no hope Learning the steps made us weak instead of strong Where wolves were many and the shadows long We shall not part, so goes the song, we were so right, we were so wrong Worse or better, looks like forever is not that long Forgot the clock and the time flew past Blindfolded and chained to the mast Flew like a rocket, dropped like a stone Digging in the ground for a stranger's bones Delivered our lines but our voices went unheard until the truth became the devils word We shall not part, so goes the song, they were so right They were so wrong Worse or better looks like forever has come and gone --- Worse or Better - The Devil Makes Three
