Cradle
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 can see he says what he means
I can't say what he means when he says that
I'll pretend a pretty pretend
When all I wanna see is the end of this
I can see he says what he means
We'll deal him sticks and stones and apologies
I wish
Oh, I wish it was through
Scrape the skies
Get up off your knees
Just lift the marks
And new-found releases
I'll pretend a pretty pretend
When all I wanna see is the end of this
I wish
I wish
I wish the cobwebs would cover me
Cover me
Cover me
My vicious tongue
Cradles just one
