Can't Go On
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 could fly overseas and try to be someone
Somewhere else but I won't, no I won't
I could cut my hair just to impress someone else
But I won't, no I won't
Damn you for loving me
I can't go on now knowing you exist
Damn you for leaving me
I can't go on now knowing you exist
I could change my name and try to be someone
I've never known but I won't, no I won't
I could open my heart and try to love someone
With all that I've got but I won't, no I won't
I could open my ears and try to hear someone
Who's crying out but I won't, no I won't
I could shoot holes in the moon and try to ruin romance
For everyone else but I won't, no I won't
Damn you for loving me
I can't go on now knowing you exist
Damn you for leaving me
I can't go on now knowing you exist
I could tear out my eyes and never see no one
Ever again but I won't, no I won't
We could pass on the street and try to act surprised
And half alive but we won't, no we won't
