Lyrics
5 Best Songs
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.
I took the five best songs
When I quit the band
Didn't hear them on radio
But you know them if you're a fan
They're gonna keep the name
I'll keep my tattoo
Hurt to get it done anyway
Why hurt to get it removed?
I took the five best songs
And I'm gonna play them
You bring your cello and I'll
See if I can replicate
The way we used to sing together
I am sick of being a bellwether
In the eye of the storm
It all seems overblown, yeah
I'm gonna perform
And sing both parts alone, then
I will write five new songs
And I will be honest
I'm glad not to have the sneaking
Feeling I don't want this
The way we used to sing together
I am sick of being a bellwether
You can't help but grieve, I get it
I'd much rather be untethered
I took the five best songs
And I'm gonna play them
You bring your cello and I'll
See if I can take it
