Chipping Away
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.
There you go again, faster than you ever did before
Flying round the room, like your san salvador
With your little brother’s blue [?] mac on
And a word that you swore you’d never go back on
You seem to like running, but these thorns will follow you round
They keep chip, chip, chipping away
They gonna keep on chip, chipping away, away
They keep chip, chip, chipping away
There gonna keep chip, chip, chipping away, away
Coming down again, faster than you ever
Now she sees your pain, and realizes that it’s a whole lot more
With your little brother’s blue [?] mac on
And a word that you swore you’d never go back on
You seem to like running, but these thorns will follow you round
They keep chip, chip, chipping away
They gonna keep on chip, chipping away, away
You’ll keep slip, slip, slipping away
You’re gonna keep on slip, slipping away, away
Chip, chip, chipping away
They gonna keep on chip, chipping away, away
You’ll keep slip, slip, slipping away
You’re gonna keep on slip, slipping away, away
