Angel
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 sounded so good on the phone
all moved up and all moved on
me and gravity, we never could agree
but i can almost see the sky
when i need to, i close me eyes
you're the only thing that's worth holding onto
angel you sing about beautiful things
and all i want to do is believe
but i traded my dreams for this mess of memories
and they just stopped working for me
now i'm not a monster
i believe like a liar would believe
helps me navigate the wooden smiles, the raging seas
and all my heroes pull their heads
like a fighter would, i guess
no one ever really likes getting older
angel you sing about beautiful things
and all i want to do is believe
but i traded my dreams for this mess of memories
and they just stopped working for me
