If I Was You
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.
Stoke the fire feel the heat
Your chance to burn out on the streets
Smash and grab on the run
Play the game with a loaded gun
The litle bird has left his nest
He feeds no more on mothers breast
On your own you take the choice
Listen to your inner voice
If I was you and you were me
Would you live your life differently
If I was you and you were me
Make your mark use the knife
Your following your own advice
What you sow is what you reap
You can't stop now your in too deep
You started life as something new
Innocent untill you grew
On your own you take the choice
Listen to your inner voice
If I was you and you were me
Would you live your life differently
If I was you and you were me
