Lyrics
Solitaire
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.
Once I thought the world was crazy
Everyone was sad and chasing
Happiness and love and
I was the only one above it.
Once I thought without a doubt
I had it all figured out
Universe with hands unseen
I was cold as gasoline.
Took too long, to think
I was wrong
To believe in me
Only.
Once my life was a game
So unfair
Beat me down and kept me there
Unaware of my naysayer
Solitaire was all I was
Playing
Took too long
To see
I was wrong
To believe in me
Only.
