The Arrival
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.
So you've got something to say
And it won't take very long
The years have given you perspective
I will give you the same length
That it takes to sing this song
Time made me a monster
And not I'm armed
Can't do much like I used to
Can't do what I used to do
But I accept it
I held to hope for years
Or was is only months
So soon I won't remember
But it never went away
I saw it everyday
I gave until my anger
Gave you away
Can't do much like I used to
Can't do what I used to do
But I accept it
It won't take very long
