Any Old Story
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.
Tell me a story, any old story, just get me out of here.
I got my demons, my feelings, what's left anyway.
Keep the truth so far away from me
That's all I ask of you to do for me.
The story, the story must never end.
Improvise, so long as I'm listening.
Distracted I'm safe again. I've faith again,
Cause I mustn't start the questions
'cause I know they'll never end
So please read on, please read on
Hijacking demons, for no reason,
Storm my head again.
And I'm back to that same moment once again.
And I feel the story coming to an end.
The story, the story must never end
Improvise, so long as I'm listening.
Distracted I'm safe again. I've faith again,
Cause I mustn't start the questions
'cause I know they'll never end
So please read on, and on, and on read on.
The story must never end.
