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.
Sunlight, falls heavy
Can't hide, you're awake already
Long night, you're unsteady
You don't even wanna be here, do you?
Cry out, not for the last time
It's funny how a word might save your life
And I'm saying a lot right now
But I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna be here, be here now
There's a bad taste in my mouth
I stumble in the dark, tripping on a heart
It's gonna leave a mark, maybe we can stay and wait it out
You're the one that talks me down
And even you can't help me now
Even you can't help me now
Headlight, dark highway
Drive on, but it feels all sideways
No signs, I'm a headcase
I'm alone, but I feel you, feel you now
Head down, I can't remember
If we left on a start or an ender
You and I we're so worn down
But I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna leave
I don't wanna be here, be here now
Like a bad taste in my mouth
I stumble in the dark, tripping on a heart
It's gonna leave a mark, maybe we can stay and wait it out
You're the one that talks me down
Even you can't help me now
And we fall, and we break
And we turn our inside out
And we're lost in a daze for days and days and days and now
But I thought that I could turn it around
But I don't wanna fight
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna leave
But I don't wanna be here, be here now
There's a bad taste in my mouth
Hell, I stumble in the dark, tripping on a heart
It's gonna leave a mark, maybe we can stay and wait it out
You're the one that talks me down
And even you can't help me now
(Sunlight falls heavy)
Even you can't help me now
(Sunlight falls heavy)
Baby, even you can't help me now
(Sunlight falls heavy)
Even you can't help me now
