Dead Reckoning
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.
Flying through the dark
Dead reckoning
My gages can't be trusted
Can't see a goddamn thing
I know the day is coming
That catches up with me
I told you you're no match
But then who could be
Thought we were the lonely type
On an island of the lost
But it was only me
Because you got lost
I can't change you
I can't change anyone
