Primo Levi Lyrics & Tabs by Lack
Primo Levi
guitar chords lyrics
The damage I've wrought, the death that I've brought, the pain I support
All makes a sordid mirth of my good intentions
For every yes a thousand nos and for every dam
That I tried to built there is a promise of flooding
And a memory of the ocean
Once I thought it for the best
To never, ever give up and I still do
Think it for the best
To never, ever give up
Hopelessly so, for every good reason
Just sounds like a bad excuse
Oh, I've grown weary of saying no, but friends it's all I've had
Only nails in flesh, nails in wood, a crown made of barbed wire
Still at the end of the day all that remains is bitter shame
Of having survived by compromise as others die
Only nails in flesh, nails in wood, a crown made of barbed wire
Still at the end of the day all that remains is bitter shame
Of having survived by compromise as others die
Bitter shame
Once I thought it for the best
to never, ever give up and I still do
think it for the best
to never, ever give up, give up, give up.
I hope I die before the day
when I have to give up, give up, give up, give up.
If you choose the burder
Is it still a burden
Even if it takes your life?
The fool and the martyr
Are bred of the same soil
Who can tell us apart?
