Hurdles Even Here |
So it started in your ovaries |
A stone, a seedling |
Our bones entwined |
A warning from the orderlies |
A bulge for bleeding |
This will take it’s time |
So it all ran down the telephone |
And saw me clearly |
Only nine years old |
Calmly cast in styrofoam |
In my Tony Lamas |
When the shock takes hold |
Mom, there are hurdles here |
That I cannot seem to clear |
Dad, there are demons around |
And though I said that I |
Said I’d be all right, I lied |
I lied |
I lied |
I lied |
So fix your brood and belly now |
Get your fingers wringing |
Get your loins unstained |
It’ll eat you from the inside out |
Until it comes out screaming |
Until it all falls away |
Dad, there are hurdles here |
That I cannot seem to clear |
Mom, there are demons around |
And though I said that I |
Said I’d be all right, I lied |
I lied |
I lied |
I lied |
