Listen
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.
Why are you so green
How can you say that to me?
When did you fall from grace?
You've got a dirty face
And it's killin' me
Why don't you listen?
Why don't you listen to me?
I'm drownin' but I never felt so free
Can you follow me?
Will you justify me please?
Said you're wrong
Said you're gone
I'll guess I'll wait another night
For what you're gonna say
Back to me
Why don't you listen?
Why don't you listen to me?
I'm drownin' but I never felt so free
And I try
But I never try too long
When you're gone
Why don't you listen?
Why don't you listen to me?
I'm drownin' but I never felt so free
Why don't you listen / hear what you're missin'
