Lyrics
Never Be
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.
White the fleeting path
The spotlight comes and goes
Stormy nights embrace the candle
Breathe the smoke
On and on into the dawn
The waves, they will roll
You'll never be
You'll never try
You'll never live
You'll never die like me
You'll never see
You'll never touch
You'll never know
Not half as much as me
Green the envy, crashing onto living stone
Red the hungry power, stealing flesh and bone
You'll never be
You'll never try
You'll never live
You'll never die like me
You'll never see
You'll never touch
You'll never know
Not half as much as me
We go on and on
And on and on
And on and on and on
Like me
Paper dolls in paper walls
We're built to fly but then we fall
So easily
We're torn apart
We go on and on
And on and on
Like me
You'll never be
You'll never try
You'll never live
You'll never die
You'll never love like me
We go on and on
And on and on
And on and on and on
Like me
