By The Water
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 walked down to the edge of the water
I didn't ask you what you thought
So I left you there forgotten, and I
I never found out what you meant
Sometimes I feel like nothings ever gonna change
I'll wake up in 50 years and feel the same
But everybody's talking about how it's gonna be OK
But I don't believe them, no, no, no
No, I don't believe them, no, no, no
No, I don't believe them, no, no, no, no, no
Sometimes I feel like nothings ever gonna change
Sometimes I feel like nothings ever gonna change
Sometimes I feel like nothings ever gonna change
