Lyrics
What Is It?
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.
In your eyes I've seen it
In my silence it's heard
In a dream it lingers
In solitude it's known
In honesty I scream it
In panic I forget it
In desperation I need it
In time I lose it
In my mind I save it
