Lyrics
Aperture
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.
Happiness is somewhere i have been before-
A blurry photograph that i have since ignored.
I'll carefully adjust the aperture once more,
Until i set the record straight.
I'll brush aside the dim, make room for the bright.
I'll be an editor, no, a curator of light.
I'll let my better angels always set me right,
Until i even out the score.
Until i even out the score.
God, it has been quite a year-
I've lived a little bit and i've died a little more.
I know that i've asked it before,
But please let the scale tip here in my favor.
What was once the sweetest melody i've heard
Is now a memory reduced to little words.
I'll tune the orchestra and play the overture,
Until i pinpoint every note.
Give me the heart of an archeologist,
That i may dig until i prove that i exist.
A subterranean cathedral in my midst,
Where echos come to rest.
Where echos come to rest.
Is this where echos come to rest?
God, it has been quite a year-
I've lived a little bit and i've died a little more.
I know that i've asked it before,
But please let the scale tip here in my favor.
Until i set the record straight,
Until i set the record straight,
Until i can set the record straight.
