I Can't Even Lift My Head
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.
If I should ever disappear,
What would I come to?
What would I come to believe?
If I had seen your father,
What would his face do?
What would his face do to me?
Oh, I can't even lift my head,
To say a word.
To say a word to you.
I can't even recognize,
What I did wrong.
What I did wrong.
Oh, I can't even lift my head,
To say a word.
To say a word.
