Went Missing
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.
I fell off the face of planet Earth
I went missing for a living
People were singing
For What It's Worth
When I went missing for a living
I took the subway to Humble Pie
And I went missing for a living
Too much temptation
I can't satisfy
So I went missing for a living
Can I have your attention?
Then take away the sky
Crash into me with spiders
I was struck by a rubber band
So I went missing for a living
I got urges I don't understand
So I went missing for a living
I threw a flower into outer space
And I went missing for a living
Everybody sang Amazing Grace
When I went missing for a living
Can I have your attention?
Then take away the sky
Crash into me with spiders
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
Secret destroyers keep away
