Breakthrough

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 can take or leave it, won't be the woebegone

Don't need a model universe to hang your pictures on

You hide somewhere, you die somewhere

And then this senseless thought

By hating more you're feeling more

And that's how you get caught

They're never going to make it easy

Of this you can be sure

I greet you from the wilderness

I'll stay inside your door

There's no cage or prison, they have no fence too tall

You die more times that anyone, there's still no place to fall

They're never going to keep it simple

This comes down from above

I have no helm, no secret realm

I dream to be at the heart of love, a part of love

I bet you can conceal it, but that's just a dead-end track

I'll cover you like the driven snow and then I'll bring you back

You'll see! You feel like, you feel like a banner

Unfurled and gently blown

And there before your opening eyes

The self you've never known

They're never going to make it easy

Of this you can be sure

You feel untied, beatified

And loved for evermore
