Burnt At Both Ends
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.
There's a black dog that lives in me
That will no longer let me be
In my heart there's a splinter and
All through the night i wish i were sleeping
I am a candle burnt at both ends
I'm in the flame that's licking my heels
Your words cut in the place that i always bleed
In the part that discerns just what i believe
I lie in the bed that i have made
Shake the night through on the edge of a blade
I am cut in the part that discerns between
The way things are and the way that they should be
