“Wild winds

5 (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’1)
are death to the can-dle.”

6 6 (3’1’5)  
A rose by

5 (3’1’5)
an-y

4 (3’1’5)
oth-er

(2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’1)
name is a scan-dal.

6 (3’1’5)  
Cau-tions

5 (3’1’5)
is-isued,

4 (3’1’5)
he stood

(2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ 1’ (1’1)
shoot-ing the mes-sen-gers.

6 (3’1’5) 6 (3’1’5) 2’ 2’ 1’ 6
They tried to warn him a-bout her.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
Cross your thought-less heart,

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
on-ly liq-uor a-noints you.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
She’s the al-ba-tross,

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
she is here to de-stroy you.

Wise men

“One bad

seed kills the gar-den.”

6 (3’1’5)  
One less

5 (3’1’5)
tempt-ress,

4 (3’1’5)
one less

(2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’1)
dag-ger to shar-pen.

6 (3’1’5)  
Locked me

5 (3’1’5)
up in

4 (3’1’5)
tow-ers,

3’ 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 1’ (1’5)
but I’d vis-it in your dreams.

6 3’ (3’1’5) 3’ 3’ 2’ (2’6) 1’ 6
And they tried to warn you a-bout me.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
Cross your thought-less heart,

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
on-ly liq-uor a-noints you.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
She’s the al-ba-tross,

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
she is here to de-stroy you.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
Dev-ils that you know

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
raise worse hell than a stran-ger.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
She’s the death you chose;

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
you’re in ter-ri-ble dan-ger.

5 5 5 (1’35) 2’ 1’ (752) 5
And when that sky rains fire on you

1’ 1’ 1’ (1’35) 1’ 1’ (3’1’5) (2’7) 1’ 7 6
and you’re per-so-na non gra-ta,

1’ (1’6) 1’ 1’ 2’ (1’35) 7 (52)
I’ll tell you how I’ve been there too

(1’6) 1’ (1’35) 1’ 1’ (3’1’) 2’
and that none of it mat-ters.

6 (3’1’5)  
Wise men

5 (3’1’5)
once read

4 (3’1’5)
fake news

(2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
and they be-lieved it.

6 (3’1’5)  
Jack-als

5 (3’1’5)
raised their

4 (3’1’5)
hack-les,

1’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’5)
you could-n’t con-ceive it.

6 (3’1’5) 
You were

5 (3’1’5)
sleep-ing

(3’1’) 3’ 3’ 3’ (3’1’5) 2’ 2’ 1’ (1’5)
sound-ly when they dragged you from your bed.

6 (3’1’5) 3’ 3’ 3’ 2’ 2’ (1’5) (2’6) 1’ 6
And I tried to warn you a-bout them.

1’ 1’ (5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
So I crossed my thought-less heart,

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’46) 2’ 2’ 2’ 1’ (1’35)
spread my wings like a par-a-chute.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
I’m the al-ba-tross,

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’35)
I swept in at the res-cue.

1’ (5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
The dev-il that you know

(4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’35)
looks now more like an an-gel.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
I’m the life you chose

1’ (4’2’6) 3’ (2’6) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’35) 2’ 3’ (2’7) 1’ 7 6
and all this ter-ri-ble dan-ger,

6 (2’46) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’35) 2’ 3’ (2’7) 1’ 7 6
this ter-ri-ble dan-ger.

1’ (2’6) 1’ (3’57) 7 (1’6)
So cross your thought-less heart.

(5’3’) 4’ (3’57) 2’ (1’6)
She’s the al-ba-tross,

(4’2’6) (3’1’) (2’46) 2’ 2’ 2’ (1’63)
she is here to de-stroy you.
