The Thunder Answered Back

Oh, how my heart can fly when your smile has good intentions And "Hi" can mean the world to me And I know singing makes you shy When it's in front of me and my friends But your singing means the world to me Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh And how I tried to keep my cool When we disappointed you You waxen wing, you foolish thing And oh, how I can still taste Your tongue-tied stare upon my face You dirty look, you burning bush So here I sit, I've come to rest Some weight upon your little chest You free-for-all, you wrecking ball Hovering next to your bed To lay waste to your healthy head You spider web, you dance of death Ohhhhhh Ohhhhhh I believe you'd be so cold to leave me hanging all day long You prickly frost, you courage lost But I could never be so mad to shake you by the shoulders screaming You coward! You hummingbird! You coward! You hummingbird! You coward! You hummingbird! You coward! You hummingbird! You coward! You hummingbird! You coward! I screamed out, "How'd it get this bad?" And the thunder answered back If you know not what you lack Then you must un-turn your back Your inside is overcast You are tethered to your past And it must feel like fucking hell To be a patchwork of yourself A bunch of scraps thrown and sewn around your bones And though you're alone, it's holding you too tightly A bunch of scraps thrown and sewn around your bones And though you're alone, it's holding you too tightly But who are you? From where do you come? What do you believe in? And who do you love?
