The Gate
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.
My healed chestwound
Transformed into a gate
Where I receive love from
Where I give love from
And I
Care for you
I care for you
Split into many parts
Splattered light beams into prisms
That will reunite
If you
Care for me
And then I'll care for you
Didn't used to be so needy
Just more broken than normal
Proud self sufficiency
My silhouette is oval
It is a gate
I can
Care for you from
I care for you you
Care for me
