lyrics

stuffed animals in candle stores
clay figurines in tiny drawers
you always had a rough time fitting in
.
shaking in your bed like you couldn't stop
drinking half-a-gallon in a single pop
the doctor says you did it on purpose
your eyes always made our mom nervous
now I'm certain you're stuck on the surface

** little holes in our seams rip a little more each year
** hand-me-down pair of jeans and a shirt your girlfriend used to wear

loud angry songs from tiny rooms
thought you killed our cat so you dug her a tomb
you don't talk a lot about your mind
.
pierce yourself for fun when you're in the mood
playing with a baby cause he understood
the doctor says you need more pills
the other ones couldn't quite kill
now I'm hoping you never will

** little holes in our seams rip a little more each year
** hand-me-down pair of jeans and a shirt your girlfriend used to wear
** how you love your routines, how you hate those people that stare
** never trust my machine, and don't listen to me, I'm never there

frustrated, am I wrong or can I help
am I on my own trying to discover what it is you're thinking about?
stand my ground, cause even if I'm wrong I wouldn't tell
I apologize but I'm pretty sure he's in your hands now

mom doesn't think you should come back home
cold hospital bed on your own
thirty-seven advil did the trick
crying on the floor like it really hurt
messing with your sister cause she did it first
the doctor says take another class
this time maybe you could just pass
but I'm thinking, we need more than that
