Quick Bright Things
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.
Quick bright things come to ruin
That's why I never loved you
You can't light my heart like a fuse
And expect it to fall down red, white and blue
Quick bright things come to ruin
That's why I never watched you
In the sky I never joined you
Cause the light was inside me and it was shared with someone else
I never chose you because
I don't think that love should spit and flicker and die away
For the sake of another quick bright day with you
Quick bright things come to ruin
That's why I never watched you
But you, you kept comin' down like lightning
But the light was inside me and it was shared
