prolyphic and reanimator – born alone lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i’ve got this paper thin soul
that crinkles and folds when the wind blows
i take care of myself
maybe everything else’s so simple like
how it used to be
can it be?
i’m skin and bones
and everything i touch isn’t gold
it turns to sh-t on my soles
that i pick up when i walk down memory lane
i find myself crossing out every name ’cause another
bites the dust
fighting the rush
like life wasn’t tough enough
the things you do out of spite and love
buried in mud and cleaned it up with a soapbox
i found ways in my waves goodbye
to make the boat rock
f-ck the hopes and hope nots
’cause it turns in my stomach
you said go hide
and close my eyes
and count to a hundred
well…
i stopped at twenty-three when i realized the joke
wiped my tears with this blindfold
and just kept my eyes closed
the waves stop until my hands turn ice cold
this nice guy writes verse and likes to be alone
and i
write my verse
but not like poems
and i
throw my two cents at birds
but not like stones
i tuck my soul in my socks
and hide my heart in my pockets
born alone, die alone’s the only thing you’re promised

[chorus x3]
born alone
born alone
born alone
born alone

die alone
die alone
die alone
die alone

[verse 2]
’cause it’s a sh-tty thing to say
and a sad way to think
so i write inside this pad
until my pen runs out of black ink
spilling my soul
until i run out of things to say
’cause sometimes how i feel
ain’t the right thing to say
the truth stings when it’s swung like a sling-blade
the beautiful strokes
the ugly inks on this page. it’s like
serving what’s in your heart
sold on a cold dish
it’s cliche to say it’s therapeutic
but i know it is
i’ll show you
what’s cupped in my hands
and at the pit of my stomach
until you understand where i’m coming from
and it’s what’s
keeping my going on beat
and on my feet
and knowing someone’s out there listening
i’m reaching out to no one
i’m just trying to make a living
not fame or the woman
just throwing my two cents in the pot
everyone’s p-ssing in
it doesn’t need to be like this
i want you to know
i hope you’re there by my side
when it’s my time to go

[chorus x3]
