Glass Castle
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.
So you think you can get rid of me?
I'll your place at the head of this dynasty
I am the reason you're alive
You need to look back and see
how you treated me, how you treated me
When you bite off the hand that feeds
You'll live without what you truly need
Sacrificing everything, but does it even mean anything
Any moment this could all be gone, without respect it won't be lon
Have you had enough of me?
You act like I'm something you can throw away
You need to look back and see
how you treated me, how you treated me
You need to look back and see
how you treated me, how you treated me
When you bite off the hand that feeds
You'll live without what you truly need
Sacrificing everything, but does it even mean anything
(Any moment this could all be gone, without respect it won't be long)
I am the reason you can't run away
I am the reason you can't escape
Give up you're mine
You're terrible inside
I am the reason you're alive
You're all emotionless inside
Give up you're mine
You need to look back and see
how you treated me, how you treated me
When you bite off the hand that feeds
You'll live without what you truly need
Sacrificing everything, but does it even mean anything
Any moment this could all be gone, without respect it won't be long
