lyrics

You’re crawling backwards, crawling backwards on your knees
high as the birds that are singing in the trees

You’re crawling backwards, crawling backwards on your knees
towards peace, towards hopelessness
towards everything you ever needed that you couldn’t get
Oh oh-oh

Someone tell me where to go
Someone tell me how to row my boat ashore
My mind is in chains and my soul is
walking out the door
walking out the door

He said boy she sure does
look like she needs a shot
He said boy she sure does
look like she needs a shot

So Tommy went and he got the Vodka
but he meant a shot in the head
somebody get the doctor
cause I think somebody’s dead

She didn’t want to spend her life
being a lonely psychopath
She didn’t want to spend her life
being a lonely psychopath

That’s P-S-Y why me?
That’s C-H-Oh no
That’s P-A-T-H
just the path that you chose

You’re crawling backwards
You’re crawling backwards on your knees
high as the birds that are singing in the trees

The words…
Drop like seeds
right out of your mouth
and grow up to be trees
that cast shadows of doubt
and when they lose their leaves
there’s nothing left
for you to shout about

so I take a rake
and I rake the leaves
into piles of wants
and piles of needs
and there’s a little kid
inside of me
that wants to jump right in
to the dried up colors

thoughts once bright
now just get duller
with the passage of time
