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.
Count off to the feel of your beat yeah
Make it rain on my melody
Am I man enough to man this sunny afternoon?
I fell off from the throne of the maker
Made a mess of a parody
I can count a little fun as many things too soon
And your radiance came around
On the heels of a magical mystery
And the beauty of your major key
The ambitions as a survivor
Make stronger a man of me
But the enemy of mine is staring back as you
I need to know this love is real
I want to feel the sadness
I want to know how it tastes
When you throw it at the moon
I want my heart to be cold as ice
I want to take it back in time
Dig a grave with my teeth
I want to bleed in the rain
I want to feel my very chest ripped open at the seams
I really want to know
Was it a dream?
The courageous on the horizon
Made many a soldier weep
Was there anybody around to bury them at noon?
And the fortunes of the messiah
Gave hope to the progeny
That the sky was in a shade of lighter blue than you
But your radiance came around
On the heels of a magical mystery
Made a suitor and a slave of me
The melange of all the dividers
Made everything incomplete
And the only thing to do is stare at the moon
I want to know how it tastes
When you throw it at the moon
I want my heart to be cold as ice
I want to take it back in time
Dig a grave with my teeth
I want to bleed in the rain!
I want to feel my very chest ripped open at the seams
I want to lead you by your breast, animated and obscene
When I'm blinded in the sunlight will this love be real?
Or was it a dream?
