Take It Back
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.
Early on you were a dreamer
First class non-believer
In all the things they said that
Early on you were a dreamer
First class non-believer
In all the things they said that
You could never do
Deep down you did the digging
Tied tight all the rigging
Your ship was set to sail
Your seven fantasies
Later on you were a lover
First kiss with another
Chose who you want to be with
Bells in the chapel rung
Soon you got some kids to call your own
Work your fingers to the bone
Dedicate yourself to family
Life runs ahead of you
Take it back, take it back, take your life back
Now you´ve gone and lost direction
Lost love of detection
Some things are gonna fall apart
Hold your head up again
She may have gone and left you
New job could have killed you
Turns out you act your age now
Try messing up again
Take it back, take it back, take your life back
Take it back
Take it back
Claim your life and take it back
Take it back
Take it back
Claim your life and take it back
