Lyrics
Rules to follow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You better tell somebody
Go on, you might as well
Document your feelings
It might be your last chance
You can't tell
Scream and shout about it
Make sure it's good and loud
If you're unsure about it
It really doesn't matter anyhow
(Chorus)
Who says there are rules to follow?
Will you be around tomorrow?
Time out, use your own expression
You can't take this life for granted - Go!
Get your pens and pencils
You better write this down
Cuz soon enough it's over
And when you're gone this part is around
Work hard to rise above it
You'll have to figure how
A plain and simple message
Why be another face amongst the crowd?
(Chorus)
