Trickle Down
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.
Open your window
Lend an ear and then
Pull back the curtain
Hurry so you can hear
Listen to the hum
As it rises riding the breeze
Leaving gravity's children
A grounded
Onwards and upwards
That's the way ever on
Beyond the highest plateau
That's okay
There's a reason
Why some people float
Sometimes are floored
God knows this reason
That's what gods are for
Press on your window
Feel the pane
