They Must Go
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 stand before you with a virgin heart beating to
The sound of my pulse these dancing spirits
Using me as a host
But they're too loud and I can't think
They stay around setting up for free
But they must go, it's harder that I thought that it would be
I'll do what it takes to shake them off me
I work 'till it hurts to support myself on my own two feet
But I know it's not for long 'till I rewrite my own destiny
I'll find a way, and I'll be fine
I'll figure it out without losing my mind
But they must go, it's harder that I thought that it would be
I'll do what it takes to shake them off me
It's harder that I thought that it would be
I'll do what it takes to shake them off me
But l won't let them drag me down, drag me down
No I won't, no I won't
My soul might be gone, but I'm still around
But l won't let them drag me down, drag me down
My soul might be gone, but I'm still around
But they must go
But they must go
