[Verse 3]
             
    Now I am s

As this water

Maybe   she wa

[Bridge]
            
    What dying

    A wooden  

             
  spoon tossed

         
 in the fire
             
    Cause noth

[Verse 4]
            
    A sliding 

              
hill, a quick 

    
refrain
              
    A frozen b

    An eyelash
