came looking for a spine
in a factory
came looking for a spine
in a stack of shattered bricks
looked around
four years
and with every day I lost
I gained new space
trimmed my nails
cut my hair
came looking for the spine
in a factory
it’s purpose forgotten
down by the canal
it’s purpose forgotten
still looking around
four years
and with every day
I lost a little more
of what little bones I had
trimmed my nails
cut my hair
trimmed my nails
cut my hair
trimmed my nails
cut my hair
i have forgotten how to read
i can no longer read signs
came looking for a spine
four years
and I have forgotten where I looked
i am losing my memory
but I have found The Spine
I have found The Spine!
came looking for a spine
in a factory converted
purpose forgotten
old canal
purpose forgotten
came looking for a spine
found a construction site to behold
shattered bricks
mud blackened with cigarette ash
vermin corpse forgotten
i found The Spine
trimmed my nails
cut my hair
trimmed my nails
cut my hair
found a construction site to behold
road signs I can no longer read
but I found The Spine
so what I lost in time
i gained in empty space
i am losing my memory but I have found the spine
under the rug under the rug under the rug under the rug
trimmed my nails cut my hair trimmed my nails cut my hair
trimmed my nails cut my hair trimmed my nails cut my hair
trimmed my nails cut my hair trimmed my nails cut my hair
came looking for a spine
and i found
I am losing my memory
but i lose no sleep
my throat and sinuses fill with the blood
leaks in through my dreams
and when I wake up I have found The Spine
when I wake up I have found The Spine
when I wake up I have found The Spine
when I wake up I have found The Spine
