Take What You Want
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.
Just as long as we are here, standing tall for one more year
Sing out loud and keep away the cold
When you're blind and you can't see
Realize it's them, not me
I might be hard to find, you know it happens everytime
When I'm tired I crawl, I can't stand to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
When you're wide and I'm awake
I got time enough for days Take a-want you want
It just might set you free, not me ...
Oh no way, I've been up for a thousand days
But you can cut me down when I'm old and gray
And if you catch me on the move, you can come along
Or you can disapprove
I might be hard to find, you know it happens every time
When I'm tired, I crawl, I can't stand to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
When you're wide and I'm awake
I got time enough for days take a-want you want
It just might set you free and not me...
Does it feel the same
When I'm tired I crawl like the savior in us all
But I don't mind it's somethin' that I'm used to
And when it's time to go, I just thought I'd let you know
Farewell this time, you're always on my mind
When I'm tired I crawl, it's a shame to see you fall
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
But when you're wide and I'm awake
Baby, I got enough damn time for a million days
Take a-want you want and it just might set you free....
When you're up you roam, it's a shame to see you go
And the years they don't treat you like they used to
Just as every light you see might be the one that sets you free
Keep on rising like the ones you used to know, let's go.......
