Boy Bruised By Butterfly Chase
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.
Someone was laughing at me without shoes
But the grass felt so good and the day was so blue
Must have tripped, I don't know
Do I remember falling away, nothing that I hold on to,
And not being afraid?
Down, down, down
Falling down, down, down
It's like I was born never touching the ground
Someone was crying while I lay in the dirt
I could hear their hearts breakin' but I wasn't even hurt
Down, down, down
Falling, down, down, down
Was like I was born never touching the ground
Ground, ground
Was like I was born never touching the ground
