The Play - I
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.
"To those it may concern", a full page of words. I'm leaving you
Though the fire inside s till burns, this shell I've become is consuming me
As painful as it can be, I'm open for you to see my enemy
As though I've never been close to anyone I still feel it, I miss it
And I can see no sense at all
I've tried so hard to break my fall
And all around me people say
"He's turned his life into a play"
Quietly I'm there, one step closer to despair, they do not see
this struggle within me, I thought stronger I would be, God, I was wrong
And I can see no sense at all
I've tried so hard to break my fall
I never meant to fly this way
But in the end it's all a play...
