Lyrics Cripple - Brother/Ghost

Cripple

His thoughts had been let out
I could hear 'em from my bed
Outside someone was sayin'
They found him hangin' from a wade bench den
And the bottles they found
They didn’t just find one
The battling with his wife
The battling with his son
And oh
If it weren’t for my legs in time
They’d get me outside
It’d be too much for my eyes
When the police cars arrived
On our street
I couldn’t tell if it was the sirens
Or it may be the heat
That made me start prayin'
Something I don’t quite believe
Please leave me a cripple
Please leave me not
And oh
If it weren’t for my legs in time
The beauty outside
Would be too much for my eyes
And oh
If it weren’t for my legs in time
The beauty outside
Would be too much for my eyes
And oh
If it weren’t for my legs in time
The beauty outside
Would be too much for my eyes
