Down My Spine

All she ever wanted in this whole worldwas to dance her

bones away

all she ever wanted in this whole wide world

was to scream what she could not say

why is it cold and mean all the time

why do i always feel

like a straight line is crawling

in and out and up and down my spine

even when i am sleeping

All she ever wanted in this whole world

was to dance her bones away

Only how she haunted in this whole wide world

she wished she could waste away

why is it cold and mean

all the time

why do i

always feel like a

straight line is crawling

in and out and up and down my spine

even when i am sleeping

somebody open up her hands

somebody open her hands up

so she can listen through her fingers

and finally touch it

somebody open up her voice

open her voice wide like a river

so time can deliver all it's

sweetness

woman lies awake dreaming like alice

in some sequined wonderland

still hallucinating

that her dark prince

is gonna come and take her hand

lift it from the ground

its been buried so long

turn it all around until there's nothing wrong

even when i am sleeping

all the time

why do i

always feel like a

straight line is crawling

in and out and up and down my spine

even when i am sleeping
