Walls Down
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 start with the base
And blow the walls down
You'll be holding your clothes
The wind will be that strong
But God, what a face
You always have had
I know I can't undo it
I can last another year
Why should I worry
I can only lose what I've been given
I can't be afraid
Of the other side
I won't go looking
It will find me, I know
But I've had lots of practice
I pushed around and I found
The greeting of a sharp sting
Left me paralyzed
I say to you now
I'll start with the base
And blow the walls down
And you'll be holding your clothes
The wind will be that strong
