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.

We’ll make it down slowly, discover our hearts are dumb

There’s nothing that holy in loving like drunk kids love

And I’ve forgotten where I was

I see you in spotlights, in visions I’m saving now

Before we are parted by rivers of words somehow

I’m still besotted, but sobered up

So let’s drink, drink the best wine now

While we’re strong and we are proud

Until lightning strikes us down

And you’ll eat, eat 'til you are full

Cutting straight through all the bull

I will accept you, warts and all

It’s weird and unnerving, forsaking my old life now

'Cause this is a burden I can’t seem to do without

When time is rotten, we soldier on

I wanna be nearer, I wanna be close behind

A little bit clearer, a little bit hard to find

And I’ve forgotten who I was

So let’s drink, drink the best wine now

While we’re strong and we are proud

Until lightning strikes us down

And you’ll speak, speak ’til you are whole

What is clear is what is gold

You’re only human after all

Our time is short

Our time is short

Our time is short

Our time is short
