Down and Out - Savage Messiah

What is a test of virtue?

The standards we must find

Instead the shackles hurt you

But never dealt in kind

Dealt in kind

Stern are the eyes that search you

To measure your design

Alone with jackals, turn to

The depths you’ll search inside

Search inside

Down and out

No small mercy found

It’s like life conspires to confound

Down and out

Just the worthy crowned

But for those outsiders, no rebound

You’ll stay

Down and out

No rules, the flock desert you

With slander always primed

It’s like they never heard you

Your status is declined

Now declined

Down and out

No small mercy found

It’s like life conspires to confound

Down and out

Just the worthy crowned

But for those outsiders, no rebound

You’ll be

Down and out

Down and out

No small mercy found

It’s like life conspires to confound

Down and out

Just the worthy crowned

But for those outsiders, no rebound

Only

Down and out

Down and out
