Lyrics
Petrify
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.
Today nothing’s gone right
Thinking I'll pack bags tonight
Ooh, get out the rain
I know you don’t feel fine
Won’t make it out this fight alive
Ooh, heal the pain
With your mind in gear
There’s nothing I can’t put to die and
All that’s drawing near
Are the darkest dreams to petrify your soul
Ooh, get out the rain
Ooh, a dark house feels safe
Sometimes you wear me out
I wish that I could breathe somehow
Ooh, get out my head
My skin turns inside out
Crystallise as I strain to shout
Ooooh, nothing comes out
