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 were a medicine cabinet ball
I came crawling, I came crawling, every night
Like the rat I am
Like the rat I am
Of all the things, things I thought I'd seen
Sure didn't see that coming
Slower now
At your patient's tracking, holes into your skin
North to South
I came crawling, I came crawling, I came crawling
Oh gently please
won't you take your time with me?
Oh gently please
stop talkin' 'bout dying like we haven't tried it
All the things, the things I thought I'd seen
Sure didn't see that coming
And oh gently please
won't you take your time with me?
And oh gently please
stop talkin' 'bout dying like we haven't tried it
And oh gently please
stop talkin' 'bout dying like we haven't tried it
