Lyrics
Coraline
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm looking for a trap door
Some escape or passport
I wish they taught a crash course on cognitive strength
My thoughts are like the chatter of the rain they pitter patter
Now I'm searching for a ladder to climb out of this hole
The void is not deep it's just empty
My inspiration crashed it smashed in to a levy
I tried to dig it out as I slouch around this house
I could do some big things if I let go of the doubts
Coraline the world keeps messing with my mind
And I feel blind underneath these button eyes
I'm tired of always forcing my life to work
I feel like I'm a gardener who hates the earth
My father got stung by wasps in the face
Just to teach me a lesson on how to be brave
And mother knows best but that's hard to attest
When she sews my mouth up cause she thinks I'm upset
I must learn my lesson to stop the progression of this pent up aggression it's my latest obsession
Coraline the world keeps messing with my mind
And I feel blind underneath these button eyes
Everywhere I go people seem so cold
Tell me how I am to know
If someone is a friend or foe
