lyrics

The first time my voice ever sang
My heart got chipped like a porcelain stain
How balmy the burn that burrowed in my palm
My nights were soft and lonely and my days went on too long

I grew up hearing my neck looked lovely concave
So I stooped and stuttered simply stowed my sympathy away
Life was a pill I swallowed dry, I’d sip the sea to soak my pride
I was a daughter to the slaughter, please don’t make me food for fodder
Can someone tell me how long I’ve been mixing oil and water?

I met a man with a fist for a hand
He had a tantalizing tendency for breaking all my plans
But to be hurt and to be strong
I'm the dichotomy of song
The loneliest of conquerors who's battled on her own
But no one can tell me for whose sins do I atone
