lyrics

Backbone? It takes one to know one.
Your headstone is buried behind the yard.
For all intents and purposes, we'll say you didn't know
how your self-inflicted, rattled bones kept others down below.

Naturally, it's easier to kill a singing song
then digging up your self-control. an untamed lion all for show.
I was born to bare your passive teeth,
but didn't last for long.

If i refuse to bury all i've ever seemed to say
does lion's pride seem justified and carried to the grave?
Or do the bones of all the singing crows
develop to your taste?

Backbone? It takes one to know one.
