Descensus
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.
You have everything you could want
And you waste it
In a marriage where you can't decide
How to break it right
Ever changing the places you hide
We will find
An excuse in whatever you choose
Let this die
Trickle down your face tears of pleasure
Mixed with tears of pain
They taste the same as everyone insisted
I won't let you go until the end
You have everything you could need
And you waste it
On a partnership that you hate
So you break it
Ever changing the places you hide
We will find
An excuse in whatever you choose
Let this die
Trickle down your face tears of pleasure
Mixed with tears of pain
They taste the same as everyone insisted
I won't let you go until the end
If you could try and get your timing right
I'll let you stay if you could eat the pain
Taking its place just let me disappear
If we forget I'll do it all again
There is no home there when your heart is gone
The secret is clear if you could eat the fear
Where it can grow no one will ever know
If you can try and get your timing right
Leave it alone look at how much its grown
I'll be okay if I can sell the pain
Look and you'll see
If I didn't make all these mistakes I wouldn't be losing
Wondering openly devilish we let it go too far
I know I let you down somehow we mustn't let this die.
