Laws of men

by Pall Kvaran


1
Stonefaced wall,
a clayborn jar
the Sunium ship
is not too far
Walk with me,
they´ll let you leave
I´ll never blame you,
no cause for grieve

Chorus:
Laws of men,
they´re not pretend
the hand that fed me
I´ll never bend
Black or white:
it´s not the truth
No(t) whatyou came for
I´m here for you

2
Spit and smother,
(they)´ll call us cheap
(you)´ll be forgotten
no gain to reap
Sons and daughters,
minds so bleak
(you)´ll be embarrassed,
yours to keep

Chorus
Laws of men,
they´re not pretend
the hand that fed me
I´ll never bend
Black or white:
I´m grey, I´m blue
No(t) whatyou came for
I´m here for you

3 (intermittent)

Mine to take,
yours to keep
One last sip
and back to sleep

Chorus
Laws of men,
they´re not pretend
the hand that fed me
I´ll never bend
Black or white:
grey,not blue
No(t) whatyou came for
I´m here for you

Probably not, but I still like it.

You're making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches right?

I don't know what it's about...only that I like it. I like it a lot!

Honestly I can think of several meanings to this song and I think that makes it even more remarkable..I can hear this being played by my teenage son on his electric guitar! Most Excellent!!!!!
