Cry Wolf
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 couldn't wait for answers
You just had to try those wings
And all your happy ever afters
Didn't mean a thing
So I'm not gonna try at all
To keep you from the flame
Just remember not to call my name
When you cry wolf
Once too often
When you cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
When you cry wolf
I won't hear you anymore
If you start to stumble
If you start to crack
And if you're ever feeling humble
Don't look back
When you cry wolf
Once too often
When you cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
When you cry wolf
I won't hear you
You can try but you can't get me
Into the fire
'Cause I'm out of sympathy
And I can't walk this wire
So find yourself somebody new
To catch you when you fall
'Cause I got just one thing to say to you
And that's all
When you cry wolf
Once too often
When you cry wolf
No, I won't come knockin'
When you cry wolf
I won't hear you
Baby baby, cry wolf
When you cry wolf
I won't hear you
Anymore
