Song Lyrics

"Tether To Tassel"

by Michael Knott
Album: Live From Nash-Vegas

So long to the good times that I had with you
You pulled a sword from your purse to run me through
Now my heart is bleeding like rain
You hit the bucket of blood that fills my veins
Hello Sorrow, I've known you before
I'm the hurting soul from a forsaken shore
The spine of the sting ray has hit my behind
And ever since I can remember life's been a hinder

Tether to the tassel
Prison to the Bastille
Faint to Fainted
These are related to me

I cling to the faith It's the faith I keep
Though the waves you've made have gotten so steep
To weep right now would be a crying shame
But for that day I pray to keep me sane
Give me no dagger, Hand me no blade
I'll endure the day so my life will be saved
Ahab's beckon will bring me a coffin
I'll reach the sand as fast as I can
