Carried
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.
Oh, tell me how to let it go
Just like this
In a medicated bliss
Is it still a terrifying overload?
A stultifying open road?
If I pay your ferry boat
Will you carry my load?
And I'll paint all the ways in which I've failed
Set my glories alight
And still fight you tooth and nail
For my youth is screaming
The door never really shuts
Despite agoraphobic ifs and buts
You're close to going through
Will you carry me too?
And I know that I have it all in the same way as you do
But we all take a unique fall in the final scene
To a violin string
Or a crashing train
We all need somebody to teach us
How to be
Carried
Oh, do you see Eden through the gates?
Who has the list?
Has this all been über fate?
Is every move a known footprint fossilized?
A rare remake realized?
And if you fall too soon
I'll carry you
And I know that I have it all in the same way as you do
But we all take a unique fall in the final scene
To a violin string
Or a crashing train
In the pounding rain
And the thunder rolls in
And the vertigo comes and goes
And comes and goes and comes
We each need somebody to teach us
How to be
Carried
