I Shot Myself
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 shot myself
I can't get up
I'm beyond repair
I shot myself
I'm over some hill
Beyond the valley
Stars in the black night
Sun filters through
Forgetting a mountain
Time slides in my mind
I know what it is
It's time to die
But the goodness is heartfelt
With the turning of time
And the ways of the broken
And I know how to hide myself
I shot myself
I can't get up
I'm beyond repair
I shot myself
And your mercy abounds
From when you forgave me
Until the ice of your catapult
