Despondency
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.
Say you want this, don't cave in
Save our souls from this desperate hole
Don't say you want this control
I won't ever let this be untold
Don't say you want this
Don't say you want this when you don't
You're pushing us further, don't you know
Grinding us down till we're nothing but low
Don't say you want this, don't you dare
Don't you
I've worked so hard in envy
To try and prove my worthy
You're nothing but depending
On the heart that I am lending
Take my soul and I'll take yours too
I'm done
You're pushing us further, don't you know
Grinding us down till we're nothing but low
Don't say you want this, don't you
You're pushing us further, don't you know
Grinding us down till we're nothing but low
Don't say you want this, don't you dare
I'm not here to save the world
I'm trying to brave all my own desires
Take this pain and save yourself
Infinite time we waste
Trying to prove ourselves
I won't conform
