Skeleton Of Splendor
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 reached two hands outward
Two birds spreading our wings
Today's arms turn numb
When I turn it inward
We live and breathe all your thousand words
Now you sleep, we'll finish your work
To my detriment
To my detriment
To my detriment
(I forge ahead unscarred)
To my detriment
You painted us with effort
Always praising us high
The day has come to face the storm
As lightning strikes me in two
We live the dream onward as it were
Endless days we'll carry on as one
There's no doubt of what we're here to do
You laid it out
A promise of yourself
To my detriment
To my detriment
(I forge ahead unscarred)
To my detriment
(I forge ahead unscarred)
To my detriment
To my detriment
(I forge ahead unscarred)
To my detriment
(I forge ahead unscarred)
To my detriment
(I forge ahead unscarred)
To my detriment
