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.

All you want to be is insane

Wishing you were more than just plain

And when you try you try too hard it comes off fake

Many times I wanted to say

Plastic people like you will break

And soon enough it caught up and you went away

And if I

Never see

You Again

It'll be too soon to make amends

And if I

Never see

You Again

It'll be too soon to make amends

You like it when you make people wait

It's the only time you're calling the plays

Controlling nothing makes you execrate

Everybody knows you're in pain

We all know it stems from the shame

Because your actions called for a drastic fall from grace

And if I

Never see

You Again

It'll be to soon to make amends

And if I

Never see

You Again

It'll be to soon to make amends

You suck up life like you're a needle

Sticking in a vein for life

Keep up appearances when needed

You're used to changing overnight

I always wondered if you saw

What the rest of us could see

Your every day's a final straw

Can't see the forest for the trees

And if I

Never see

You Again

It'll be to soon to make amends
