about

The song "Posseshun" is written and preformed by The Highway Thieves.

lyrics

The rich man knows the cost of everything
But the value of nothing
The preacher says to live life on our knees
But that don't sit right in my stomach
Well a strange voice in this reoccurring dream
Keeps telling me we gotta stand for something
The old man sold his life for minimum wage
But mine is not for sale so keep your change
Yeah their lives were lessons for me
Why do we only want what's been taken away?
Like yesterdays can be saved in our dusty old things
Let's drop the scraps of the past to which we desperately cling
And know that something good
Yeah something good is this way coming
Promise me you'll never ever leave
Even though we both know your lying
Cause even if we grow old holding hands
We still gotta deal with dying
I'm sorry for the countless things I've taken
And all the pretty things I broke
But darling for the scars upon your heart
Darling for the scars upon your heart I apologize the most
Why do we only want what's been taken away?
Like yesterdays can be saved in our dusty old things
Let's drop the scraps of the past to which we desperately cling
Because there's nothing in life that death let's us keep
Darling there ain't nothing in life that death let's us keep
So if we kicked down the door and crept into your house
And we took everything worth talking about
Would you think to thank the thieves
For lightening you load and showing you what you don't need...
