Lyrics
Far to Go
Martin Carpenter
Verse 1
How do you spot a bleeding soul?
You don?t have very far to go
There?s one in your neighborhood
You don?t have very far to go
Verse 2
Like lacerations on your body
Varied in severity
You know some are self-inflicted
Some come from your family
Bridge
Man learns to love what keeps him down
He wears it all over town
On his head just like a crown
You don?t have very far to go x2
Verse 3
I give up I cannot heal
I pick and bleed and kill what?s real
Outro
But there is blood to replace just what I lost
You don?t have very far to go x3
