For richer or poorer

Kendall Sanburn

Rhymed
Still my feet pain
Stuck out in the rain
Cant tell if i will be the same, ever again

Held under a thumb
Slept next to another bum
Sung out my heart and noone comes

Why cant you see us here
The streets are draining tears
But you are up there with closed ears

Travelin round with shredded shoes
My clothes are decaying too
I cant help but shoot these blues

All these people all around
Going crazy and burning it down
I might just join, whats left of this town?
