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.
All the holes at once are coming alive
Set free
Out of sight and out of mind
The lonely and their prey
The ones you light your fires to keep away
Crawling out upon its belly
And all you have to do is say yeah
All the birds stay up in the trees
All the fish swim down too deep
The lonely and their prey
I am here
Come to me before it's too late
The one you light your fires to keep away
Is crawling out upon its belly
And all you have to do is say yeah
