Light Year
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 woke you up with poetry and stones
The ragged and the bones
Strewn around the room
I recall another hazy may
Take a round in the ring
Gone hungry for the win…
Heres the part i just lose everything
I cracked a spark just to hear you sing
Sing…
I took it out
The papers and the trash
Old among the cans
This golden love gone bad
Shined it up
Aiming at the sun
Just a light year from us
Hop a cab ride and we're off..
And all the ravens came along to play
The simple notes you sang just went astray
Everything was up, its coming down
Everything was up, its coming down
Coming down
