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.
I wanted to live, so I pretended to die
I had to shut down cash out and get buried alive
Out of the black and into the daylight
You had to dig me out, dust me off and pull me off the cross and
Break me back open, break me back open, look inside
Break me back open, break me back open, shine a light
It's gonna be bright
It's gonna get loud (it's gonna get loud, it's gonna get loud)
It's gonna get heavy (it's gonna get loud, it's gonna get heavy)
I wanna to kiss the ground and lay down the gospel according to st. Me
I'm out of the vault (out of the vault, out of the vault)
Where no one can fault me (out of the vault, where no one can fault me)
I'm not a black box fort knox time to change the locks
And break me back open, break me back open look inside
You've got to break me back open, break me back open and shield your eyes
Yeah when you kick the door open, kick it wide open
Surprise, surprise, it's gonna be bright
I'm not a black box fort knox time to change the locks
And break me back open, break me back open look inside
You've got to break me back open, break me back open and shield your eyes
Yeah when you kick the door open, kick it wide open
Surprise, surprise, it's gonna be bright
I wanted to live, (I wanted to live, I wanted to live) so I pretended to die
Out of the black (out of the black, out of the black) and into the daylight
It's gonna get loud (it's gonna get loud, it's gonna get loud) it's gonna get heavy
