Lyrics
Bastard
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.
I am not your little brother
I am not your son
You are not my older brother
I will call you one
I feel your need to recover
I'm no longer your bastard
How long will you need to recover
I'm no longer your bastard
I will follow you till it's over
I will stick to one
I will gravitate to another
Follow anyone
I feel your need to recover
I'm no longer your bastard
How long will you need to recover
I'm no longer your bastard
