Cat's Cradle
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.
Ties that bound us now fallen apart
Our cat's cradle tangled from the start
A bitter taste, fault split in two
I won't make this any easier for you
Drew the blindfold from my brown eyes
Crystal view then I realized
If there was something I could do
It's not enough for you
Lost your luster, no glitter in the light
Fickle friend with an axe to grind
Won't be direct, can't draw blood from a stone
Green eyes that cannot let go
Cold comfort thinking I'm better off
Can't keep holding on to what was lost
Drew the blindfold from my brown eyes
Crystal view then I realized
If there was something I could do
It's not enough for you
Every talk, every time it's something new
Every light you burned out across the room
Go and get what you want, you'll see the truth
It's not enough for you
