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.
Come run away with me
This ain't the world we signed up for
Echoes cross the open sea
In a place without any range war
And this is the last song I will write
This is the last time I will ever fight
For you
For you
Mama lost her second love
At a time when she really needs him
He could not have been enough
So small but still bumping the ceiling
And this is the last dream I will have
My lady, my lord, my mom and dad
All floating away into spring
All floating away into spring
You work up on your feet
And then turn away from the sunshine
It's you who've seen my worst defeat
Crawling through crumbling coal mines
And these are the last words I will sing
'Cause this is the end of everything
I'm crawling away to the sea
I'm crawling away to the sea
