What You Are
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.
Watching you walking away now
I know that it's time I should go back inside
And start living
But I can't live without a weakness
Someone who can always get me down so easily
That's what you are
Feeling you weighing me down now
I know that it's time I should get off the ground
And start walking
But I can't walk without a monkey on my back
Making me feel every step
That's what you are
Watching you walking away now
I know that it's time I should turn back around
And forget
But I can't forget without remembering
That no one makes me feel the way you do
I can't be without
I can't live without you
One way or another
You're gonna make me suffer
And I can't live without a weakness
Someone who always gets me down so easily
That's what you are
