Efemra
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.
Count the words inside my head
I can't believe I'm barely breathing
Blinded by the world instead
I can't believe just what I'm seeing
Count the words inside my head
I can't believe I'm barely breathing
(And all you known from the start)
Come back, don't waste your good years
(Is all you need on depart)
Hold back, the world's just fine here
Face it, our memories are more potent
Trees after thunder hour
Find out if I have that power
Wounds that mark us, safer in silence
Count the words inside my head
I can't believe I'm barely breathing
Blinded by the world instead
I can't believe just what I'm seeing
Count the words inside my head
I can't believe I'm barely breathing
Come back, don't waste your good years
Hold back, the world's just fine here
Face it, our memories are more potent
Trees after thunder hour
Find out if I have that power
Wounds that mark us, safer in silence
Count the words inside my head
I can't believe I'm barely breathing
Blinded by the world instead
I can't believe just what I'm seeing
Count the words inside my head
I can't believe I'm barely breathing
Blinded by the world instead
I can't believe just what I'm seeing
