Down My Spine

All she ever wanted in this whole world

Was two 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 time

Why do I always feel like a straight line

Is crawling in and out and up and down my spine

Even when I'm sleeping



All she ever wanted in this whole wide world

Was to dance her bones away

Only house she haunted in this whole wide world

She wished she could waste away



Why is it cold and mean all time

Why do I always feel like a straight line

Is crawling in and out and up and down my spine

Even when I'm sleeping



Somebody open up her hands, somebody her hands up

So she can listen through her fingers and finally touch

Somebody open up her voice

Somebody open her voice wide like a river

So time can deliver all its 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 it's been buried so long

Turn it all around until there's nothing wrong

Even when I'm sleeping



,All time

Why do I always feel like a straight line

Is crawling in and out and up and down my spine

Even when I'm sleeping
