lyrics

I’ve come back to my cabin
Crazy I was like a nut gone candy
Passing off my pride as laziness
Hiding my ambition like a fist buried deep in my gut

All the birds under the eaves
All the bats at night kept trying to tempt my soul to take flight
Oh such sweet release
I know I’m part God part Dad part beast, part of all that I feel
When I feel enough, I feel alive
But only barely

Everything’s fought out, thought out, talked out of me
Everything’s fought out, thought out, talked out of me
Everything’s fought out, thought out, talked out of me
Everything’s been fought out, thought out,
talked out, thought out,
fought out of me

If I give up what I don’t get, give in and just it be, maybe I won’t
Stay freezing on a childhood feeling - I’m just trying to be me
But it’s been done a billion times, please!
And all the stars in the sky shout down on me no time is free
And I won’t get a reprieve. Hiding in my cabin bed
Cowering at dawn’s first light with sunken cheeks and
Sheets pulled tight a sunbeam bar across my eyes
Like a silent movie mummy I’m alive
But only barely

Everything’s fought out, thought out, talked out of me
Everything’s fought out, thought out, talked out of me
Everything’s fought out, thought out, talked out of me
Everything’s been fought out, thought out,
talked out, thought out,
fought out of me

Everything’s called out, crawled out, bawled out of me
Everything’s chucked up, hocked out, hauled out of me
Everything’s wore out, tore out, cut out,
shut out, broken down on me
Everything’s dropped out, popped out, fucked out,
shucked out, all
shot out of me.
