"Shoulders"

Please wake up

Please wake up

Touch my skin and tell me where you been

You brought me in

You brought me in

So touch my skin and tell me where you been

You showed me how

To keep myself from burning out

They found you in the morning

The blood was on your shoulders

They found you at the corner

Your head was doubled over

And the blood of the man who killed my mother with his hands

Is in me

It's in me

In my veins

Please wake up

Please wake up

Touch my skin and tell me where you been

You brought me in

My best friend

So touch my skin and tell me where you been

You showed me how

To hold my sin

And kiss the bad ways I have been

They found you in the morning

The blood was on your shoulders

They found you at the corner

Your head was doubled over

And the blood of the man who's killing our mother with his hands

Is in me

It's in me

In my veins

It's in me

It's in me

In my veins
