Misrhymed Song Lyrics:

"Place Your Hands"

The Misrhymed Lyrics:

Oh, place your hands on my hope,
Run your fingers through my soul.
And the way that I feel right now
Oh lord it may go
...
So lay me down, for a while.
Join my body, with my mind.
Oh, I cried at the common one
4 weeks aft' he died.

Why They're Misrhymed:

None of the words at the end of each line in those two verses rhyme.
