Lyrics
It Is As It Was
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.
The ones who made us
Are always looking for the ones who made them
The ones who contain us
Are always looking for the ones who made them
Encounters of the third kind
Look, there's a hanging, I think I'll go ***
Three tries, he won't die
Beat him with stones so your father has some pride
The ones who made us
Are always looking for the ones who made them
See, they want to contain us
But they're always looking for the ones
And I'm sorry that they didn't tell you about the world
And I'm sorry, I'm sorry that they didn't tell you about the world
