Backbone
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.
Well it started with a few choice words
Slipping out of my mouth
And the expression on your face
Looks like you didn't like the way it sounds
I'll take back because my bones told me
I made them pround
When they said I had to understand
Understand, understand
A skeleton will never work without
No it won't work without a
Oh, got a backbone in me now
It keeps my head on tightly wound so I don't lose it
Oh, got a backbone in me now
It make me say these things out loud
I might be waited way too long
But now I'm standing straight
Must be strange for you to hear me
Make a point with all these things I say
And I can see you grind
Your teeth as my words come out
I'll take back because my bones told me
I made them pround
When they said I had to understand
Understand, understand
This time I think my bones will stick around
(They'll stick around)
Oh, got a backbone in me now
It keeps my head on tightly wound so I don't lose it
Oh, got a backbone in me now
It make me say these things out loud
Make me say these things out
Well switch your bones so you won't know
I keeps my bones so you won't know
Just how it feels have a
We'll trade our skeletons for now
We'll be trading skeletons so you
Know how it feels to have a backbone
Got a backbone in me now
It keeps my head on tightly wound so I don't lose it
Oh, got a backbone in me now
It make me say these things out loud
Make me say these things out
Got a backbone in me now
(We'll be trading skeletons so you
Know how it feels to have a)
It keeps my head on tightly wound so I don't lose it
(We'll be trading skeletons so you
Know how it feels to have a)
Oh, got a backbone in me now
(We'll be trading skeletons so you
Know how it feels to have a)
It make me say these things out loud
Make me say these things out
(We'll be trading skeletons so you
Know how it feels to have a)
