lyrics

Bad Credit

Now the day has gone away
You’re sitting in the dark
When you say you are that way
You are because you are

When you lease a life worth living
You can buy it on time
Your credit is bad
I call that dying
Death’s a bitter wine

Soon you’ll say you’ll have to pray
Cause praying is a start
Good for you ‘cause I pray too
I feel it in my heart

When you lease a life worth living
You can buy it on time
Your credit is bad
I call that dying
Death’s a bitter wine

When you lease a life worth living
You can buy it on time
Your credit is bad
I call that dying
Death’s a bitter wine

Kindly souls they find a home
And very rarely lose
Life is light
When switched on right
Your nature you must choose

When you lease a life worth living
You can buy it on time
Your credit is bad
I call that dying
Death’s a bitter wine
