Vessel
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.
Call me over, bring me down
I can not go to sleep
Maybe if I'm honest with you
You could lie to me
Often I have found myself a vessel
To a heart
Softening the bones til I cannot stand
But I cannot break apart
Sometimes I think of you like
A day that has no wind
Like sunlight spread across
Out to the eastern horizon
Sometimes it feels like forever
I have found the open
Jaw of the mermaid virgin queen
Tearing through the cavities
To become both extremes
Easy come or easy go, the
Lungs of fate do heave and blow
A dress of white to a dress of red to naked as can be
