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.
You know that time never sleeps
Keep one eye open like
I've got my head full of dreams
All shattered and broken like
Never chose love, it chose me
But I'm still here making stones bleed
So I'll go on swimming upstream
Till I come tumbling down
Oh, when the working don't pay
Oh, when you're living on faith
Something's got to give
Something's got to give
Oh, when you're giving your all
Oh, when it's coming up short
Something's got to give
Something's got to give
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
In the name of the Father
(Something's got to give, something)
Hey, I've been caught in the red
Needing the breath of life
But I came back from the dead
Diamond like, golden like
Never chose love, it chose me
But I keep burning endlessly, so
Go tell them angels I'm blessed (go, go tell 'em)
There ain't no taking me down
Oh, when the working don't pay
Oh, when you're living on faith
Something's got to give
Something's got to give
Oh, when you're giving your all
Oh, when it's coming up short
Something's got to give
Something's got to give
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
In the name of the Father
(Something's got to give, something)
Give a little more
Woah, yes (woah, yes)
When the going gets tough
Gotta give a little more
Woah, yes
When the going gets tough
Gotta
(Usually I wouldn't do this, but ah)
Say it (woo hoo)
We've made it
I said love it when a plan comes together
Baby, say it (woo hoo)
We've made it
I said love it when a plan comes together hey
Say it (woo hoo)
We've made it
Hey I love it when a plan comes together
Baby, say it (woo hoo)
We've made it
Say I love it when a plan comes together
Hey
