Crooked Spine |
| Hey, Mrs Crooked Spine, walking ominously |
| Swinging right leg after left |
| You’re drinking bottle after bottle |
| Of uncertainty it seems |
| But you’ve had metal rods put in your back |
| So show them what that means |
| Yeah, your ex-lover owes you money |
| And I don’t think he’s coming through |
| 'Cause he’s a scumbag alcoholic |
| Lost his way at twenty-two |
| He’s a spineless ordinary |
| Without a single rod |
| To hold his back up straight |
| Stop acting like you don’t deserve happiness |
| I saw you trapped inside a cave |
| As I was resting on a hill |
| Hans was in there with you too |
| The water rising for the kill |
| I tried to pull you out but couldn’t get you |
| Through that two foot gap |
| I walked away and paced in panic |
| I wasn’t sure of what to do |
| The dead moss resting by an isolated |
| Boulder was a clue |
| Sometimes there’s no way out |
| Sometimes you drown your loved ones there to watch |
| Stop feeling like you were never important to me |
| Strong spine |
| You’re lighting your whole world on fire |
| Beat up and bruised like you used to be |
| S-shaped vertebrae |
| You got stories to tell the world |
| Don’t be so scared to tell them |
| What you’ve been through |
| I’m sure you’re fed up with the distance |
| As much as me and if not more |
| But we don’t show that much resistance |
| Never settled up the score |
| Maybe we’re cold and somewhat callous |
| From all the bullshit we’ve endured |
| Like around addiction |
| That leaves you screaming at the walls |
| As we deliberate between letting it ring |
| And picking up the calls |
| To a slurred out conversation |
| Built with shame and brutal self-deprecation |
| Stop talking like you don’t deserve anything |
| Strong spine |
| You’re lighting your whole world on fire |
| Beat up and bruised like you used to be |
| S-shaped vertebrae |
| You got stories to tell the world |
| Don’t be so scared to tell them |
| What you’ve been through |
| I know I wasn’t good to you |
| When we were growing up |
| And I blame myself for doing damage |
| To your confidence |
| I wish I could take it back |
| Despite how much we’ve overcome |
| I was such an angry child |
| But that’s no excuse to lean on |
| You worried endlessly for days |
| About the scar upon your back |
| I said that scar was something special |
| No matter how some kids react |
| You have spinal reinforcement |
| So you get out there and you show them |
| What that means |
