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.
Farewell, farewell
My maudlin love
Drown your ash
In a single tear
And brace your heart
And brace your soul
For another long cold year
I dress my wounds in sweet moonshine
This field I live
This bridge I die
And to a world of worried want
Into its arms I must succumb
