Like A Knife In The Water
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.
I must go down to the sea tonight
I must go down to the water
I think I run my hands down the sleek body of a seal
and see how it turns its head and snaps at me with yellow teeth
oh so many things are not what they seem
O fraudulent and selfish perception
a bear lived in my parents' house for three days
a bear lived in my parents' house for three days
a kind brown bear but huge and ferocious
i don't like to think of my parents afraid
a seal makes me feel strong
a seal makes me feel strong
