Staring Down

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.

Loosened from my pride

Oh that monster kept me so tight

Threw my aces down

just to face the here and the now

So here I'll go again

I want to please

Here I'll go again

Sweet I'll sleep

Sleep till I dream

I've been looking

I've been staring down

I've been searching

I've been staring down

And your love is what I found

As cautious as a thief

Oh but restless in all of my needs

I'm standing here before all I wanted

And all that I've adored

So here I go again

I need to please

Yeah here I go again

Sweet you sleep

Sleep till I dream

I've been looking

I've been staring down

I've been searching

I've been staring down

And your love is what I

Long days, long nights

Just blinded by what was already in sight

Now I've found, I've found my way home

Yeah I found my way home

I've been looking

I've been staring down

I've been searching

I've been staring down

I've been looking

I've been staring down

I've been searching

I've been staring down

And your love is what I found
