Snap Like Bone

Life's not easy, you can't always sleep
Can't always be at the top of the feast
Most these secrets, they come with a fee
Or at least come with some pain and grief

Cause it's good but it's bad, and I have had
Better days but it's better this way
Better now than at a later age
Cause I'm sad, but I'll bounce back

Still writing a story, still calling it "Cory"
Still well, 'cause I'm still myself
The pain hasn't made me hate me yet
At least lately I don't feel dead

Get up now
Get, get up now
It's paralyzing, paralyzing
It's paralyzing, paralyzing

I'm wired but it's better than sick and tired
I've wrote me a broken arm
Fingers blister bleed, but I still believe
That with these words my scars will heal

That this music will steal me back
What's not real, so I peel off this mask
Like a reptile, I'll morph into something
Out of the mud, something loved

Bones crushed but that don't mean they're broken
Just stand up and then go through the motions
Lots of cuts - good, now I'm more open
Body marks, now you can read my fortune

Get up now
Get, get up now
It's paralyzing, paralyzing
It's paralyzing, paralyzing
Finally starting to reject the poison
It's paralyzing

This is the life I am living behind
This is the car we are willing to drive
These are the stars that have speckled my mind
When you pull me in close
They snap like bone

Get up now
Get, get up now
It's paralyzing, paralyzing
