Lyrics
Descent
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.
No desire, no air to breathe
No desire, no need to seethe
I'm just a child
That's always been
I need to justify
Just to survive
What i want
Is what you get
But what i want
Is not yours yet
What you want
You always get
But what you want
Is not dead yet
