First Notebook
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 set it down
You cut it up
Then say I think I know
I think I know you
It's a sleepy time
Do you mind I don't sleep
I miss the motion
I miss the emotion
This memory's long
You bite your tongue
Don't say it if you don't mean it
This memory's long
You bite your tongue
Don't say it if you don't mean it
This could be a bad choice
For one of us
This could be a bad choice
For one of us
Understand just what you want
Set it down
What have you done
What have you done
Understand just what I want
Set it down what have we done
What have we done
This memory's long
Your bite your tongue
Don't say it if you don't mean it
This memory's long
Your bite your tongue
Don't say it if you don't mean it
This could be a bad choice
For one of us, of us
Looks like that first notebook
Fell into the wrong hands
