Cake
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 was like why now
Now somewhere, there was no need to stop
We don't see it, we don't know
Everything is fine, if it's fine
I jumped off a cliff, you follow me
You jump into the unknown with me
I don't want no grief
No, I don't wanna hold you up
It's hard, it's hard, it's hard
To be friendly, I made my mistake
But we all know, you want a piece of the cake
Now I'm angry, cos I don't know that you're fake
My mother told me I should never hate
I know you bite and I can't bite back
But I prefer to walk away, forget it
You think you've won, but you don't know that
That it would come back, come back, come
And if I jumped off a cliff, you follow me
You're too cool, too cool to come and see
And I don't wanna lead you on
I don't wanna hold you up
It's hard, it's hard, it's hard
To be friendly, I made my mistake
But we all know, you want a piece of the cake
Now I'm angry, cos I don't know that you're fake
My mother told me I should never hate
To be friendly, I made my mistake
But we all know, you want a piece of the cake
Now I'm angry, cos I don't know that you're fake
My mother told me I should never hate
