The Note
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.
"The prodigy is exhausted by his mental efforts
And -on the verge of collapse
Summons the last of his strength
To write a note for his friend, the teacher."
Dear friend, my work here is done
Science has evolved
As the sun set on father and son
The mystery was solved
I’m broken, I’m falling apart
Slowly fading away
I’m sorry… I took it all too far
Thank you for… your faith
