Balsa Wood Bones
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.
Somehow I can’t forget, you picked my feet off the ground
You pushed my face in, and I nearly drowned
What did that teach me?
I just can’t forget, you were just mean from the start
You’d leave me bleeding in the park after dark
What did that teach me
Somehow I don’t forget, you’d laugh right into my tears
You’d call me sissy, and you’d call me a queer
What did that teach me
I just won’t forget, how it just made you feel good
To snap my bones, like they were balsa wood
What did that teach me
Somehow I didn’t forget, I found out right where you live
I rang the buzzer and I let myself in
All that you taught me
I will never forget, the look of shock on your face
I pulled the trigger and your life was erased
What did that teach you?
