lyrics

Nearly a year, inside of my head,
A voice says, "Why so confident?
Your flawed reason's so short-sighted,
and it seems like you have no base,
no sense of foundation."
Wanting someone who knows me well.
Diss my natural style and ask me to be unimpeded --
that makes it hard for me to truly open.

A mean voice says
You can do better
A man's voice says
Give me the guitar
A mean voice says
I play it better
A man's voice says
Why'd you write that song

I was hurt, I was split down the middle
A dead dead dead tree, hit by lightning
Coming back slowly from paralysis
I'm sure I will heal, because I want to

A mean voice says
Stop trying to make jokes
A man's voice says
You don't have to make jokes
A mean voice says
I don't think you get mine
A man's voice says
You act like you're on drugs

It was dark, it was shadowy, scary
A dead dead dead dream, very frightening
A time when I believed the words he used to cut me down
I want to heal and write songs again

I noticed
My anger
Out of focus
And silenced
Tension
Stiffness
Brought forward
From shoulder blades
Out through my throat
Out through my nose
Nostrils flare
Course through deeply
Thorough anger
Thorough outrage
Thorough temper
Thorough courage
