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.

Have you ever been compelled

Under a spell

From a protagonist who knows you far too well

Have you ever been undone

By a slip of the tongue

And portrayed a side of you that felt hard once

So we watched the water swell

From a scottish hotel

Have you ever fell

Have you ever fell

Are you going to tell me why

There's a backpack by the bedroom window

It's a pack of lies

Everything has to reach a peak sometime

Tell me why

There's a map laying flat on the bedside table

It's a pack of lies

It's not a peak, it's a plateau

Let me know

When you want to leave this island

Let me know

When you want to hear my point of view

In the observation lounge

Couples ready to pounce

There's a reticence of dread and icy ground

So we watched the water swell

From a scottish hotel

Have you ever fell

Have you ever fell

Are you going to tell me why

There's a backpack by the bedroom window

It's a pack of lies

Everything has to reach a peak sometime

Tell me why

There's a map laying flat on the bedside table

It's a pack of lies

It's not a peak, it's a plateau

Let me know

When you want to leave this island

Let me know

When you want to hear my point of view

Let me know

When you want to leave this island

Let me know

When you want to hear my point of view

I'll stand up for you

I'll stand up for you

I'll stand up for you

I will act as a semaphore

I will guide you to a perfect landing

I will act as a distant shore

I will live to be the last man standing for you

I will act as a semaphore

I will guide you to a perfect landing

I'll stand up for you

I'll stand up for you

When you want to leave this island

When you want to hear my point of view
