Backslide
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.
Nothing's good enough
You gave the moon and the stars above
To the queen of pain
Now you've gotta know
She'll take you down just like before
So don't go back there again
Your head may want it but your soul will break
You can't get enough (don't go back you'll be better off)
You can't get enough (don't go back you don't need her love)
Don't you backslide stay away
It kills you all the time
Her disease may take a while to heal and find some relief
There's no rememdy
To push away that entity
That tempts you when you're weak
Stay strong don't give in hold steady don't shake
You can't get enough (don't go back you'll be better off)
You can't get enough (don't go back you don't need her love)
Don't you backslide stay away
Just stay away
