Lyrics
Holding Court
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.
Like a string around my finger you remind me
Of what it is to breathe
When all is lost and all seems hopeless
You breathe your life to me
I'm a crier I'm a liar
You've seen the last of me
You're a winner still a sinner
But you're better than can be
I swear I'm over you
I'm doing what you told me to
In order to forget you
In order to regret you
Pay your way, come what may, we'll see the day
when I don't need you
I'm walking blind, No way to find, If you are mine
When I still want you
Like a rope around my neck I'm running circles
Around the thought of you
'Cause all is lost and all seems hopeless
In my manic point of view
