about

she won’t take nothing off, won’t let herself be soft
won’t hang her on the line, here? that was the way it was
and now there’s nothing near, but- she might be safer here
with nothing to hold dear, at least she controls the fear
she controls the fear, and she ain’t

covered in the scars I hold
see that girl can walk and
that girl can talk, she ain’t
covered in the scars I hold
if that’s who you want,
that’s who you want, it ain’t me

i’ve been saved a seat ringside. held in place, locked by my spine.
got my eyes pried open, can’t help but see,
all the things you’ve wished i could be. and i’m glad i never tried...

(i was not made to stretch to you
and snap back.)

covered in these scars I hold
if that girl can walk,
and that girl can talk, and she ain’t
covered in the scars I hold
if that’s who you want,
i know what i’m not, it ain’t me

it ain’t me, it ain’t me
can’t not be, i can’t not be, covered-covered

i will mind my own vessel
smooth my skin down where the seams go
keep my lane clear and free so
i get where i’m meant to go
