I Left The Grounds
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 have turned around
I'm walking back to join the choir
Leaves are flying through the sky.
There's a hidden life,
there's a life that no one knows,
there are things that can't be told.
And Sister Michael didn't know.
I've never said a word to her.
It's not her fault,
but it was getting hard enough
to be around.
I left the grounds
