Backbone

You don't know how it feels to be running with horses

You don't know how it feels to be eaten by time

I was thrown out this house to be picked on by vultures

I guess you didn't see this but I'm still alive

Woah, I had a knife in my back and a noose 'round my throat

An army of haters that won't leave me alone

I got abandoned by love, forgotten by God

'Cause all of my pain has got me building my backbone (Oh-oh-oh)

You thought I'd go under in your bag full of stones (Oh-oh-oh)

Come hit me harder, harder

'Cause nothing can break me down, no

Harder, harder

My skin turned into armor

'Cause all of my pain has got me building my backbone (Oh-oh-oh)

I'll find a heart in the depths of the garbage

And I'll find a soul that's been thrown in a pit

And I'll hear the screams of the voices and know who it is

And I'll share my bad days to help us forget

Woah, I had a knife in my back and a noose 'round my throat

An army of haters that won't leave me alone

I got abandoned by love, forgotten by God

'Cause all of my pain has got me building my backbone (Oh-oh-oh)

You thought I'd go under in your bag full of stones (Oh-oh-oh)

Come hit me harder, harder

'Cause nothing can break me down, no

Harder, harder

My skin turned into armor

'Cause all of my pain has got me building my backbone (Oh-oh-oh)

My back, backbone

Back, backbone (Oh-oh-oh)

My back, backbone

Back, backbone (Hey)
