For somebody that barely left the house last week

I hurt myself a lot

Our corrugated cardboard or the dusty broken stereo

Got caught

The blood rushed from my fingertips like honey

As time goes by, the horror becomes funny

I pinched a nerve upon my back and shoulder

Couldn't sit or sleep at all

And if I wasn't so afraid, then maybe there'd be no pain

When I fall

A band-aid couldn't aid this kind of drama

Extend myself by adding up your commas

The lights above my kitchen sink are flickering again

Can't fix the problem

I'm careful with my hands, but careful's not enough

To keep the body whole

A crumpled metal saxophone or sagging wooden table

Glue can't hold

I wrapped my thought in gauze and called my mom

I'll solve this one and reapply the balm

The teenager across the street is screaming at his parents

All night long

I've got some nerve to never fear

I've got some nerve to keep you clear

I've got some nerve to tell you everything and nothing, not at all

I'm not your pogo stick or something to be stepped on

Not a failure, not a winner

Not that weak and not that strong

I've got some nerve to tell you to your face

That you've been stuck in just one place

I've got some nerve, I've got some nerve

I've got some nerve, I've got some nerve

I've got some nerve to never fear

I've got some nerve to keep you clear

I've got some nerve to tell you everything and nothing, not at all

I'm not your pogo stick or something to be stepped on

Not a failure, not a winner

Not that weak and not that strong

I've got some nerve to tell you to your face

That you've been stuck in just one place

I've got some nerve, I've got some nerve

I've got some nerve, I've got some nerve
