Swain - Hit Me 'Til I Break My Bones lyrics

Occupy myself with the thought I'm doing well Smile at every child who's young enough to tell Instigate the others while I cover up my flaws Our apathy will tear us apart It's senseless Too bored to be with people, too alone to never try Disappointment is the reason that I cover up and hide Take another stab at getting through to me The pain is not the thing that scares, it's what they want from me It's senseless Take a stone. Hit me 'till I break my bones Cover me in blood. Make me feel at home Burn my soul. Spread its ashes on the floor Take me for a fool. Push me through the door Some are born in glitter. Some are born in gold Some are born magnificent. But I was born too old A vision just obstructs you when a brain gets in the way Authenticity's a problem if you think twice about what you say It's senseless
