Balsa Wood Bones

Balsa Wood Bones - Saint Motel

Somehow I can't forget

You picked my feet off the ground

You pushed my face in

And I nearly drowned

What did that teach me

I just can't forget

You were just mean from the start

You'd leave me bleeding

In the park after dark

What did that teach me

Somehow I don't forget

You'd laugh right into my tears

You'd call me sissy

And you'd call me a queer

What did that teach me

I just won't forget

How it just made you feel good

To snap my bones

Like they were balsa wood

What did that teach me

Somehow I didn't forget

I found out right where you live

I rang the buzzer

And I let myself in

All that you taught me

I will never forget

The look of shock on your face

I pulled the trigger

And your life was erased

What did that teach you
