I Heard Of a Source
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 heard of a source down far in the east
Forbidden of course to all but the least
And I heard of a spring from someone who drank
Holes in my mind, I forgot who to thank
Wash my hands
Clean my tongue
I don't want to go to hell anymore
My dad was a bear, my mom was a skunk
My brother exploded the thoughts that he thunk
We came from a hill where all we could see
Was the routes and the eyes that were all closed to me
Anything can end suddenly
Still I want some love for me
