A Stubborn Soul Lyrics

Short were the days of the wise man
Went up the hill and never came back
A stubborn soul will fight anything
A restless soul won't just settle in

Left home in search for a paradise
Found a place for parasites
Like leeches they sucked him dry
Numbed the pain with bottles of whiskey
They become all empty

On that day he went up that hill
Couldn't go on by remaining still
Gave him some and took some more
Made him their slave, became a whore

There was no other choice for it to end
Just to look at the bullet with a grin
So won't you stand and hail this institution
This is the enticement, your one last solution

These were the days of the wise man
Went up the hill and stumbled back
Lost it all and everything
Such a will to fly, they lured him in

On that day he went up that hill
Couldn't go on by remaining still
Gave him some and took some more
Made him their slave, became a whore

No, there was no other choice for it to end
Just to look at the bullet with a grin
So won't you stand and hail this institution
This is the enticement, your one last solution

There was no other choice for it to end
Just to look at the bullet with a grin
So won't you stand and hail this institution
This is the enticement, your one last solution
You can fight against
But these walls will stand
For every brick you take
You'll fight a wicked man
These walls will stand
