Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - No Match lyrics

I'm no match for honest men And I am no match for lairs I'm no match for those who have given up When they are feeling tired Can't put me up against the man Who lets ills fate just be I'm no match for those who love the Lord And they are no match for me I've been a long time finding out Oh, where I don't belong And it's hard to say it's not escape When I'm hanging right here in sorrow Well, I love my dreams, God knows I do And there's some of them, all of me And there's raging through waking life will prove Loving dreams keeps one youthful and free Good god guides us, bad god leaves us Good sea hides us, good earth gives And good love fills us, bad love bleeds us And bad fire k**s us all, let me live Honesty is a hindrance When you want to be what's true You can be a match for me I'll be a match for you I'll stand here and shout it down And the ripple with the stream Surrounded by such violent light Showering over this wild refrain The road of earth, the patch of time As bad god leaves us free Well, age may be a match for you But it's no match for me
