THE POOREST COMPANY
When the world feels like the water breathing in and out of thee,
And I'm standing beside you, there's a shadow where a man should be,
I would be glad enough if wherever I may be,
People would remember we're woven in this tapestry.
When we steal what we can, with the courage to be free,
And I've found where I belong among the poorest company.
When the world feels like a world, a useless spinning orrery(?)
A country round my shoulders, a flag raised on a gallows tree,
I won't let it get you down. I know there are people now
Who bind together what they do and live their lives like I want to.
When we steal what we can, I take everything I see,
And I've found where I belong among the poorest company.
When we steal what we can, with the courage to be free,
And I've found where I belong among the poorest company.
