Paper Kite
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.
I'll be right outside
Floating by like a paper kite
I'm caught up in your string
Lucky in enough to be in your tree
And you'll never float too long
The birds watch as I sing
Waiting around for scissor teeth
And I could be of use
One more knot in a prisoner's noose
And you'll never float too long
And you'll never float too long
And you'll never float too long
