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.
They told me that I needed some patience
But don't keep me waiting too long
They told me that I needed salvation
But who are we to lean on?
Something's going on here
Something's going wrong
Running out of time here
But I'm still wExplainaiting for something
It doesn't matter how high
As long as you're with me when we fall
We're a step away from breaking down
I need something good
Hey, hey, don't get me jumpin' for nothin'
Hey, hey, don't get me jumpin' for nothin'
[Verse 2]
The light is at the end of the tunnel
Or is it just a runaway train
My daddy told me, "Glitter ain't gold, young boy,
So save yourself a whole lot of pain"
