A Child Once Existed
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.
a child once existed,
he never really left
he just learned to hide
a little better
he wanted peace
instead, he got me
asking
how do we know when we are lost?
how do we know?
there was a girl
a lily in the garden
i unfurled her blossom
with a kiss that i can still taste
what happened to yesterday?
it got lost in the tomorrow
her gentle movements and the
touch of her hand
a voice to my shell
but a whisper to my core
he's silenced now
still reaching out
for her
how do I live on?
how am I not forgotten?
how do I live on?
goodbye
