Lyrics
Carry 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.
You don't rush
you don't want
you don't push
you don't need
and I can't breathe
I can't breathe
so I fall, but you don't hurt
and I run to not fall
and I can't breathe
I can't breathe
and it's so
and I wanna cry but I don't wanna scare you
'cause you're so soft and you move slow
and you're not green but you're growing up
I can't breathe
And I can't believe that I might be
you
I want
you
love
love again
I can't breathe, I can't breathe
around you
you
I can't breathe around you
