It’s like my hands don’t work so good
Not connected to the arms I understood
Used to work like mine
Used to think like me
It’s a haunting dereliction of the broken parts of me
When you hurt all over and you feel like giving up
Please don’t give up
It’s like making love in a parking lot
I’m not saying I have I’m just taking a stab at the world that I haven’t got
It’s like waking up in a hospital
I’m not sure where I am but I’ve done what I can just to make it all possible
Oh the dogs are growling louder than I’d ever heard before
It’s so hard to keep your head straight while the wolves are at your door
Kick and scrape like me
Feel the hate like me
Staying honest to the birthmark you can touch but you can’t see
When you hurt all over and you feel like giving up
Please don’t give up
It’s like making love in a parking lot
I’m not saying I have I’m just taking a stab at the world that I haven’t got
It’s like waking up in a hospital
I’m not sure where I am but I’ve done what I can just to make it all possible
It’s a morphine drip to pass the headache
It’s a manic tip strapped to a bed frame
Let me growl and rip to slow the healing
It’s a plaster strip to hide the bleeding
When you hurt all over and you feel like giving up
Please don’t give up
It’s like making love in a parking lot
I’m not saying I have I’m just taking a stab at the world that I haven’t got
It’s like waking up in a hospital
I’m not sure where I am but I’ve done what I can just to make it all possible
It’s like making love in a parking lot
I’m not saying I have I’m just taking a stab at the world that I haven’t got
It’s like waking up in a hospital
I’m not sure where I am but I’ve done what I can just to make it all possible
