Lava Monster
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.
depression sets in again
i know how that goes
nothing seems to, work out anymore
and you hurt so much
feel so helpless
want to crawl into a hole somewhere and just give up
and just give up, and just give up
but i can't let you
'cause you never let me
let me
you never let me
you never let me
and you say your life is useless
and you say this is all meaningless
but i know that's just bullshit
'cause you will not give up
'cause you will not give up
give up
'cause the moment that you do
i would give up too
that's what i'd do
that's what i'd do
and it's not easy
when this happens
fighting something, that you can't see but
don't you worry
'cause i'll get in there, and take some hits for you
i'll take some hits for you
i'll take them all for you
i'll take them all for you
no more limits
no more limits
Ttke them, take them, take them all for
and i know your life's not useless
and if there's some way i'll prove it
when the lava comes i swear i'll block it
it will not touch you
it will not touch you
you, touch you
and if the lava monster came
i would block his flame from hurting you
from hurting you
he will not hurt you, will not hurt you, will not touch you
