Lowell Pelkey - "Unspoken"
from Infidel's "Frank Corbino Demo"
music & lyrics by Lowell Pelkey

down in the bottom of a bottle
he lay himself down
he keep his back to the wall
and lay his head down on the ground

howlin' wind tryin' to do him in
feelin' the bite
he pull his coat tight
he got one foot in the grave tonight

chokin' down the taste of all man's sins
knowin' well what the
empty eyes of men hold for him
in the end all promises broken
a little truth, a little lie
behind a word unspoken

stickin' it out down in the city
he wander for days
he know the other rats
yeah, he know his way 'round the maze

seen the sinners
set in their ways
seen the sun set on a
thousand false-told judgment days

chokin' down the taste of all man's sins
knowin' well what the
empty eyes of men hold for him
in the end all promises broken
a little truth, a little lie
behind a word unspoken
