lirik lagu gently bruised - family cactus
[verse 1]
my family tree is a cactus in the backyard of my parents’ home
when i was a very small child
i was warned of all the dangers both apparent and unknown
but being just a kid all i saw was a tree that was challenging me
pointy motherf~cker, got blood from everyone in my family
but he wouldn’t get me
’cause i had a plan to protect against its pr~ck
i would simply be stronger than it
so i pushed it with my armor, of bubble wrap and spite
and i grabbed the trunk tight
and that’s when i realized that my family was right
i am not stronger than this
but now that i have had a taste
i must fight for my life
and start to climb
[verse 2]
first poke was accompanied by adrenaline
which gave me a good feelin’
and it drew me in
so i just kept on climbing
and hopin’ i would feel that again
but we know that’s not how the story goes
soon the cons strangled the pros
and you realized that’s life you chose
end’s bleak if you keep on trying to reach the top of a porcupine tree
fueled by only the memory of a feeling you don’t get to keep
[verse 3]
we’ve got a family axe
that sits behind a single pane of glass
and i know it would take a single smash
to take that cactus down in a single slash
but i’m scared of the shards plowing through my arms
and all the blood that they would farm
i know this tree’s gonna cause me greater harm
but it’s just so much easier to pretend that it’s charm
could someday return
but that’s as foolish as refusing to learn
that the stove will always burn
as i reach for the summit
of this suwarrow i see it
stretched further and further
and roads that are full of needles that will never dull
the path back down is hard, and it’s going to hurt
and i am honestly scared of falling straight through the dirt
but from here i can see
at the base of this f~cking tree
my friends and my family just waiting to catch me
and my grip begins to feel a little weak
