Lyrics
Silhouette
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.
Telling your future
tell your past
give you forever
where nothing could last
when shadows have sifted
the last etiquette
she may decipher
your soul's silhouette
I can remember
you laid me down
taking me in sight and sound
the look on your face
I never forget
shine of your skin
a soul's silhouette
As you lay dreaming
all logic is lost
your system steaming
the change of guard
in shadows and secret
insurgent assent
my favorite aroma
your soul's silhouette
