The String
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.
That was the day
They put that string into your head
It made such terrifying noises
That you wished that you were dead.
You've been thrown
To be the stone
That kills the people who once left you all alone.
These are the things you'll die for
