Set It Straight
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, don't, like how I'm feeling
Swaying in the branches and the ground feels like the ceiling
And I'm steady going down
Like I knew I would
I'm steady going down
Like I knew I would
I'm sick of writing sad songs don't hold it against me
But God I'm so empty
Oh God I'm so empty
I don't know if I'll recover from it
Don't ever tempt me
Don't ever tempt me
Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from here
If I set it all straight I can look you in your eyes
And finally, make you proud
Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from here
If I set it all straight promise me you'll run away
As far as you can go
I, don't, like what I'm saying
Write it all down then record it and replay it
It's the only thing that helps me feel at peace again
The only thing that helps me feel at ease again
But it doesn't last long it's only a deterrent
To keep me from hurtin', to keep me from hurtin'
I don't know if I'll recover from it nothing is working
Nothing is working
Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from here
If I set it all straight I can look you in your eyes
And finally, make you proud
Give me one reason why I shouldn't run away from here
If I set it all straight promise me you'll run away
As far as you can go
I've got things on my mind I wouldn't tell a soul
If you can hear me now just know you're not alone
