thanK you aIMee(Explicit)
When I picture my hometown
- When I picture my hometown
- There's a bronze spray-tanned statue of you
- And a plaque underneath it
- That threatens to push me down the stairs at our school
- And it was always the same searing pain
- But I dreamed that one day I could say
- All that time you were throwin' punches
- I was buildin' somethin'
- And I can't forgive the way you made me feel
- Screamed **** you aIMee to the night sky
- As the blood was gushin'
- But I can't forget the way you made me heal
- And it wasn't a fair fight
- Or a clean Kill
- Each time that aIMee stomped across my grave
- And then she wrote headlines
- In the local paper laughing at each baby step I'd take
- And it was always the same searing pain
- But I prayed that one day I could say
- All that time you were throwin' punches
- I was buildin' somethin'
- And I couldn't wait to show you it was real
- Screamed **** you aIMee to the night sky
- As the blood was gushin'
- But I can't forget the way you made me heal
- Everyone knows that my mother is a saintly woman
- But she used to say she wished that you were dead
- I pushed each boulder up the hill
- Your words are still just ringin' in my head ringin' in my head
- I wrote a thousand songs that you find uncool
- I built a legacy that you can't undo
- But when I count the scars
- There's a moment of truth
- That there wouldn't be this
- If there hadn't been you
- And maybe you've reframed it
- And in your mind you never beat my spirit black and blue
- I don't think you've changed much
- And so I changed your name and any real defining clues
- And one day
- Your kid comes home singing
- A song that only us two is gonna know is about you
- 'Cause all that time you were throwin' punches
- It was all for nothin'
- And our town it looks so small from way up here
- Screamed thanK you aIMee to the night sky
- And the stars are stunnin'
- 'Cause I can't forget the way you made me heal
- Everyone knows that my mother is a saintly woman
- But she used to say she wished that you were dead
- So I pushed each boulder up that hill
- Your words were still just ringin' in my head ringin' in my head
- ThanK you aIMee
- ThanK you aIMee
there wouldn't be these if there hadn't been you
