whine club - sweet kid (an origin story) lyrics
throw some earth on the past
cause it was all a long, long time ago
my memories still bend every thought
but it’s time i take their bending away
i never grew up alone
mom and dad were always haunting
still, this ode to loneliness has been my soundtrack’s symphony
i felt a fire inside
i felt the wind rushing up around my neck
i felt the balance of the world had tilted
and the silt was slipping under my feet
i trembled out to the sea
rain+blind and a storm was raging
i cast a scream to swells
and i stood like a rock
and i talked
i talked until i couldn’t breathe
sweet kid, too shy–
don’t look ’em in the eye
spent all of my life
saying, “i don’t need to fight”
getting out of my way
i’m organizing the little things that make it all run
these tiny steps will inch together
in the co+rs+ marathon up ahead
i cannot retreat on me, i will defeat my worst enemy
i’ll cut my t++th, i’ll slice my streaks
i’ll recover with the weather, and i’ll learn to laugh with me
sweet kid, too shy–
don’t look ’em in the eye
spent all of my life
saying, “i don’t need to fight”
now friends getting hurt
now strangers losing rights
and i can’t just stand by
so now i need to fight
i’ll be alright
i’ll be alright
i’ll be… but now i need to fight
my mind’s not always conscious
but i have to make a choice
listen to the spirits of my fears
or the praise of my beers
or the rage of my inner voice
sweet kid, too shy–
don’t look ’em in the eye
spent all of my life
saying, “i don’t need to fight”
now friends getting hurt
now strangers losing rights
and i can’t just stand by
so now i need to fight
sometimes i just can’t see
what’s in front, or what’s inside of me
