about
I've got chronic pain caused by a bit of scoliosis. It affects my chest, neck, back, and breathing. Feels a bit like there's a rock in my ribs and it seems that I could literally just cut it out and feel loads better.
lyrics
Been thinking about cutting out twenty years of writing
Believe me, I'll leave me without second thought
And I have been scratching from inside this wall of skin
So believe me when I say I've emptied the sun
Been hurting inside my caved spine where the hell-joints meet
They've twisted the nails deep inside of my lungs
And I have been jumping in sleep when a thought comes and haunts me
So believe me when I say I've swallowed the sun
The neurons went and fought a cool war and lost, it's true, we're dead
So go on and pick your feet up and never give us a thought, I'm dead
Just listen to the center and hear the steps yourself
And then calm the nerves that threaten all the living cells
You know, you've gotta pick your feet up and never give us a thought, I'm dead
Believe me, I'll leave me without second thought
And I have been scratching from inside this wall of skin
So believe me when I say I've emptied the sun
Been hurting inside my caved spine where the hell-joints meet
They've twisted the nails deep inside of my lungs
And I have been jumping in sleep when a thought comes and haunts me
So believe me when I say I've swallowed the sun
The neurons went and fought a cool war and lost, it's true, we're dead
So go on and pick your feet up and never give us a thought, I'm dead
Just listen to the center and hear the steps yourself
And then calm the nerves that threaten all the living cells
You know, you've gotta pick your feet up and never give us a thought, I'm dead
