lyrics

They robbed me, but I found me
And they beat me, but I healed me
They told me to shut the fuck up,
But I’m singing this song that could kill me

Steven James Sloane
1318 Queen, M6k 1L4
But there’s a chance I don’t live there anymore.

It took months to prove who I was
Though the numbers and the address and the name on the license remained,
It was my face that changed

Not the bruising or the scarring
Or the swelling that was telling of a throat sore from yelling for a while,
It was an actual smile.

You can be quieter than dead
And they’ll hit you and split you and talk shit to get you to stay
So deathly afraid

So sing a song that could kill you
Because you need to and you want to
And you have to and you’ll have to
And you should too if it keeps you alive with an actual smile

Steven James Sloane
1318 Queen, M6K 1L4
But there’s a chance I don’t live there anymore.

Steven James Sloane
1318 Queen, M6K 1L4
But it’s likely I don’t live there anymore.

Steven James Sloane
1318 Queen, M6K 1L4
M as in mirror
6 as in stitches
K as in keeping it together instead of screaming at the dishes
1 as in one day I might regret this song and run away
But L as in I like it here
And 4 as in for now, I’ll stay.
