Lyrics
The Turning
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.
The turning from light to shadows
From burning to indifference
The turning of heart to granite
Of steel hopes to molten fear
And when it turns on me
Don't let it turn on me
The turning of admiration to obsession
Of caring to control
The turning of shouts to whispers
Of warm and full to grey and hollow
