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.
Calling Places,collecting careless
Sentences I write them down so I ignore them
You should too,should ignore every word
Is calling what you can surrender
The only way to really learn that the alphabet
Made up the words you could never esist to quote
Pre-chorus:
And if all this wisdom is true
Then I doubt it could really have come from you
Chorus:
Then I am what I am not,I am what I am not
But It must something more like,If I am just a thought ,I'll know
Faster than the destination of knowing where you really are
It's where you've always been
Or is it where ytou bagan?
And happinees did it happen soones than the doubt
It costs to learn from the mistakes
that I taught you
Pre-chorus
Chorus
