Lyrics
Little Deaths
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.
On a word I could fly if it was for you and I
just a "we'll be fine my love"
but I look up and down and find you are not around
nor the hope I'd hoped you'd find
All the plans that did land like butterflies on my hand
have all now flown from reach
and this luxury of fine choice is leaving
a debris of abandoned dream
It's the little deaths of ideas
that dash me against the rocks
fill me full of wings
until my heart stops
Over the wall and into the wild
all is unfamiliar
Give me light! Give me laughs! Give me something I can grasp!
and a blameless place to hide today
It's the little deaths of ideas
that dash me against the rocks
fill me full of wings
until my heart stops
On a word I could fly if it was for you and I
just a "we'll be fine my love"
