Decided to try messing around with the HTML function... and it works remarkably well! Especially if you have a decent HTML editor on hand because Yuku turns all the code into a wall of text every time you preveiw. (Even Notepad in Windows will do for basic stuff.) The advantage here is that I can do this line-for-line without breaking the flow of the lyrics.
So, here is Rei's song: A Little Piece by The Jezabels. It's not quite as good because right now I'm still kinda stuck on No Light, No Light by Florence+The Machine.
There’s a cold, easy glow
Dancing over our street.
I could have chased it down.
I could’ve held your love,
But wouldn’t you think me weak?
Of all, I should know
How the streets come and go
When you chase the kaleidoscope dream,
But, Stranger, baby, always keep me
In your sweet memory.
Biting cold, thrashing, scolding,
Drowned me under our street.
Perfect hips, perfects tits she was.
Perfect lips, pieces of your heart,
Splattered on the cliff.
We go home, watch a movie.
Tell me can you feel the beat?
Getting worse, getting worse she was,
Letting those feeling loose;
She was, becoming a monster.
She drew the line in the mind.
She was not holding on.
Look at me, can you see, I'm in love?
Hold me tight. Babe, we’ve got it.
And did you find that you’d like a little
Piece of cherry pie, hot from the oven?
From the oven?
And it was "Who let the girl out?"
(Who let the dog out)
"Let the girl out?"
Don’t you miss me the way I miss you?
Sailor, Sailor, Sailor,
I’m sending birds to watch over you.
And when you see Honah Lee is a lie,
Hold me tight. Babe, we’ve got it.
And all you need, honestly,
A little piece of cherry pie,
Hot from the oven.
On your knees, face me,
Cherry pie, baby.
On your knees, face me,
Cherry pie, baby.
| These two lines here bring to mind Tokyo in the winter time.
It sometimes rains instead of snow, thus a cold glow.
Strength of character is of great importance to Rei.
Even if she wants to do something,
sometimes she won't because it would seem out of character for her.
She's not dumb, of course.
She knows that things come and go.
But it doesn't make it hurt any less that Zeke
has several other girls vying for his attention.
Even so, she wants to be first and foremost in his mind.
Arguments. Plain and simple,
as Zeke and Rei repel and attract.
Visions of the other girls, perfect as they seem,
they also break his heart sometimes.
Precious, quiet moments together.
With everything that goes on around them, part of Rei wants to deny him still.
She fights her hidden nature, lashing out whenever she feels too close.
But finally, it comes to a point where she decides to no longer fight herself
Pretty self explanatory here.
I tend to get the imagery of Rei in Senshi-form,
fighting her way to Zeke with a dancer's grace.
Her love is like a force of nature.
And here I can see her sending out Phobos and Deimos to watch after him
when he goes away.
She is hoping that he'll see that none of this is going to turn out perfectly.
And when he does come to that realization, she'll be right there waiting for him.
Mental imagery of Rei grabbing Zeke by the lapels just before he walks away,
And kissing him with everything she's got.
