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.
It only hurts you
when you close your eyes
Please promise me my friend
that you'll live to 93
Your heart it burns you
like a raging fire and
Sometimes in the night
there's a light you cannot see
Although i know
you got a whole inside
There's something in your mind
sayin 'everythings alright with me'
Alright, alright, alright
But this isn't part of the process
This ain't 'A Beautiful Life'
Oh mind of glass
It don't help you when
you run away
Don't let it smash
it's the only thing that
made you stay
I wish you were somewhere else
I wish you were somewhere else
Oh we all know that silence
has no sound
And the world goes round
And that you've never
needed anybody else
Is it funny money makes us smile
When something in your face says
you just can't stand your wealth
Oh i know honey
that you're still not right
And it breaks my heart just to
watch you destroy yourself
Inside, inside, inside
But this isn't part of the process
This ain't 'A Beautiful Life'
I wish you were somewhere else
I wish you were somewhere else
I wish you were somewhere else
Oh mind of glass
It don't help you when
you run away
Don't let it smash
it's the only thing that
made you stay
I wish you were somewhere else
I wish you were somewhere else
I wish you were somewhere else
(it don't help you when you run
away, it don't help you
when you run away)
I wish you were somewhere else
(it don't help you when you run
away, it don't help you
when you run away)
Oh mind of glass,
It don't help you
when you run away
