Lyrics
Smash
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.
Is there anyway I can fix it
Take out my tools maybe smash with it
Let me destroy the parts that annoy
Swallow the words I'm saving
Fumble the chords I'm playing
Better just break it apart
Then where should they go
But you know I'm just following suit
It's something I aim not to do
Can't mock up a model me and you
Is someone out there
I can trust
With the words that never seem to fit
No sense looking backwards
Shattered every mirror in my eye
Scattering the scrapbook
Blueprints on the floor
Always thought things would snap into place
With a little more ease and grace
Still a ship sealed in a bottle
Never reaches the sea
And I stash all of the reasons
Dash them against the wall
And I smash your heart into tiny little pieces
And every time this happens
