Wounded

from Weak Bones by Pickwick Commons

about

“Wounded” was mainly written by our bass player, Wes Holland, but with a good amount of input from Brandon and myself. There was a different, more chaotic intro to it in the early draft, but it was replaced with a big riff that was the brain child of Brandon. To round out the song, I gave it a nasty, chugged breakdown at the end in 5/4 that quotes the intro riff of “Suffer,” which, not coincidentally, happens to be the next song.

lyrics

Staring at myself in the mirror
Knuckles bleeding
Irrational anger and fear
Not again, not again
Broken and realizing

I have lied to myself
I can't deny that I shut down to heal
I refuse to feel
Calloused heart

I've fallen apart
Leave me
Alone

Reconstruct my view of love
I'm in repair
Endure, overcome
Wounded
But I'm not worthless
Changing, this disease, my weakness

Sick and cold
Brittle, spineless, weak

I won't let these lies control
I won't let my wounds control me
