Tread Lightly
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.
Wait until the water breaks,
When all mistakes will rise to the surface
Decide. Is it worth it,
To know that I will always feel like I'm
Holding my head under water
Keep me from taking another breath
It's a fight to the death
And still I keep thinking about
All I meant to tell you
I couldn't find the words to.
So read the writing on the wall
It's wasted on you
If only I knew what you would drag me into
Another seconds passed,
Another moment that I should have grabbed
But I was holding back and
I will never apologize
Forgive me if I don't sympathize 'cause I'm
Holding my head under water
Keep me from taking another breath
It's a fight to the death
And still I keep thinking
All of my friends they warned me time and time again
And the time will come where one day I will listen
The seasons are finally changing
And I know where to go
You'll find me here
In my home town
Where ill never be alone
'Cause we know these roads
Like the back of our fists
That we smash right though
The pain and the bullshit
