Lyrics
Roulette
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.
Think of all that's come to pass
And all the things that fall away so fast
Had you tried could you have made them last
Morning could not give again
And soon enough those things that happen then
Could only wait for your remembering when
First think of this
What you would miss
Not what you become
The scheme has no roots
It sleeps on the roof
Deciding its too drunk
And though there seems no way to know
I'd rather question when I'm old
Away from all the reasons now
I'd hope to deal with them somehow
Along the way these words would scream
But could they still remain unseen
And now its left up in the air
Think of all that's come to pass
And all the thing that fall away too fast
As you tried could you have made them last
Morning could not give again
And soon enough those things that happen then
Could only wait for your remembering when
