Poor Animal
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 feel my hold on the ground
Take me under
Take me down
I am warm with surprise i know
It's the same every time
I am bold but i don't matter
What my name is
Where i rise
It's the same when i leave and when i arrive
I'm not allowed to feel alright
I will not lie in a row
Perfect little line
Get right
We are small and we don't know
Nothing changes
When you're gone
We are delusional
Poor animal
I am not your savior
Save me please
I am not your savior
Save me please
We are delusional
Poor animal
