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.

I never wanted

And I never cared before

I never wanted

And I never cared before

Take it back

This is a new day

I never wanted

And I never cared before

Take it back

This is

How I long to regress

To the days before I took upon myself

The obsession of this world (for tomorrow)

A day of innocence equating beauty (may fall)

For tomorrow may fall (and today)

And today is already (is already gone)

Tomorrow may fall

Today is already gone

Take it back

This is a new day

I never wanted, this is a new day

And I never cared before

I never wanted, I never wanted

And I never cared before

I've grown tired of chasing

Convinced I was in need

And now the years I've spent

Only a slave to this

Tomorrow may fall

And today is already gone

I will no longer adore these things

That will never satisfy me

I've seen my world change

And then go back to where it came

In this vicious circle

We are all brought back to life

Only to die

In this vicious circle

We are all brought back to life

Only to die (again)

In this vicious circle (I've seen my)

We are all (my world change)

Brought back to life (and then go back)

Only to die (back to where it came)

In this vicious circle (but without these)

We are all (barren obsessions)

Brought back to life (I am simply)

Only to die again (I am simply free)

I've seen my world change

And then go back to where it came...
