Veteran
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.
The world gets smaller [world gets smaller]
My heart beats bigger the world gets smaller [world gets smaller]
You might be bigger but I'm much smarter [much smarter]
My heart beats bigger the world gets smaller [world gets smaller]
What don't kill you lets you live
To remember what it did
I'm a bit relieved you're still the same
'Cause there's no illusion you've changed
Now, it's all over
I see now, I'm a veteran of things I don't want to be
And the more I learn, the less I know
And the deeper it feels, the less it shows
There was a time and a day when
I didn't think I would be here
But now, it's all over
I see now, i'm a veteran of things I don't want to be
I've been down, and it's over
'Cause I see now, I'm a veteran of things I don't want to be
The world gets smaller [world gets smaller]
My heart beats bigger the world gets smaller [world gets smaller]
You might be bigger but I'm much smarter [much smarter]
My heart beats bigger the world gets smaller [world gets smaller]
Now that it's over
I see now, I'm a veteran of things I don't want to be
Get down, and it's over
'Cause I see now, I'm a veteran of things I don't want to be
I don't want to be
