Perfect
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.
Played follow the leader
Keeping the steps in time
Counting on the wonder ahead
I leave the pain behind
It's on me
It's all mine
Go away
They're my mistakes
They're not your problem
Pinned down in this heaven
I'll die a thousand times
Aware of the damage ahead
I'll leave the pain behind
Another day, a perfect day
A twinge of pain
The sting of a needle
So warm at the bottom
Warm never felt so kind
And for a moment or two
I leave it all behind
Black dog, white picket fences
Mow them down
And dance in the riptide
Face down in consequences
Crack me up
And stay on your own side
I wish I may
I wish I might
I pray my soul
To keep tonight
'Cause all the walls
Are staring back
A perfect day
A sting for the last time.
