The Roar
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.
soft and understanding eyes of the young moving
with abandon atop the green lawns malleable as
luck allows faking all the ties forced out
in time needs expressions met improvised inventions lost
in the way absolute the course which instinct
betrays grinding in reversal outdo til done proper
naked self solutions surround in brightness be it
real blinding and free visceral gems hit pearlesque
in plan spark of the instant challenging the
time view the observer's plagerizing hands
