2BU
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.
Dream something and make it real
Bring me my mount, bring me my steel
Oh to be, to be, to be you
To be, to be, to be you
Now I’m the type of man who wants to watch the world burn
I hope you run, best hope that I don’t find you first
You know that I’m the worst
When I come calling
Best hope that I don’t find you first
The whole world falling
Down on you
To be you
Oh, it’s true
I’m coming for you
Now I’m the type of man who wants to watch the world burn
And here I come, I know you’re gonna love my work
You know that I’m the worst
When I come calling
Best hope that I don’t find you first
The whole world falling on you
I’ll be there too
I’m picking through the bones to find you
Give me your house, give me your things
I’m in your head, I’m in your dreams
I want your face, I want your skin
I want your name, I want to live
I want everything
You know that I’m the worst
When I come calling
Best hope that I don’t find you first
The whole world falling on you
I’ll be there too
I’m picking through the bones to find you
Oh, to be you
To be you
To be you
To be you
To be you
To be
