    Verse 1
    In 
    my mind, 
    not 
    enough 

    birds 
    have 
    died 

    in 
    the shadow 
    of 
    this 
    once 
    cast 
    stone. 

    Verse 2
    And 
    I'm 
    not 
    unwell, 

    but 
    i am 
    ill 
    at 
    ease 

    with 
    all 
    the 
    but
    tons 
    still 

    left 
    to 
    sew 

    through 
    needles 
    eyes, 

    see 
    me 
    sharper 
    than 
    i see 
    myself. 

    So 
    you should 
    stitch 
    me 
    in 

    to stop 
    me 
    from 
    bleeding. 

    Verse 3
    And 
    educa
    tion 
    can 
    be 
    fickle 
    i 
    think, 

    sometimes 
    the more 
    you 
    learn 

    the more 
    you 
    lose 
    a sense 

    of what 
    you think 
    you 
    know, 

    about 
    all the buttons 
    still 

    left 
    to sew 

    and 
    I'm 
    Verse 4
    out
    side 
    myself 
    more 

    and 
    more 
    these 
    days. 

    So 
    you 
    should 
    stitch 
    my 
    skin 
    skin 

    to stop 
    me 
    from 
    bleed
    ing 

    all 
    over 
    this 
    fresh 
    song 
    and 
    I, 


    acknowledge 
    all 
    the 
    corners, 

    and 
    all 
    the 
    freshly 
    painted 
    walls, 

    that 
    bear 
    no 
    former 
    scars 
    since 
    they're 

    patched 
    up 
    and 
    over 
    now. 

    Verse 5
    But 
    i 
    was 
    born 
    of 
    miners 
    and 
    I'm 
    designed 
    to 
    chip 
    away, 

    tun
    nel 
    in 
    the 
    dark. 

    Verse 6

    But 
    why 
    must 
    it 
    al
    ways 
    come 
    down 

    to some 
    un
    seen 
    contender? 

    I 
    don't 
    know. 

    Verse 7
    When 
    hatchlings all 
    we 
    are, 

    just 
    battling 
    the 
    whitewash 

    birds 
    above, 
    sharks 
    be
    low. 

    Verse 8
    Though 
    i 
    feel 
    em
    pathy 
    towards 

    the 
    ones 
    who 
    threaten 
    me 

    I'd 
    still 
    leave 
    them 
    soft-shelled 
    to 

    to 
    the 
    beaks 
    of 
    crows. 

    Verse 9

    But 
    every 
    now 
    and 
    then 
    a tempest 
    blows, 

    and 
    the 
    veneer 
    I 
    keep 
    comes 
    unsewn, 

    but 
    will 
    you 
    ever 
    read 
    me 
    well? 

    Verse 10
    I can 
    only 
    assume 
    so. 

    Verse 11
    And 
    I'm 
    buoyant 
    like 
    a 
    flotsam 
    man, 

    now relegated 
    by 
    the 
    waves 
    to 
    land. 

    They dry 
    me 
    like 
    a 
    brittle 
    bone, 

    paraded 
    like 
    a polished 
    stone
    . 

    Verse 12
    Why 
    must 
    it 
    al
    ways 
    come 

    down 
    to some 
    un
    seen 
    con
    tender
    ? 

    I 
    don't 
    know. 

    When 
    hatchlings all 
    we 
    Verse 13
    are, 

    just 
    battling 
    the 
    whitewash 

    birds 
    above, 

    sharks 
    be
    low. 

    Though 
    i 
    feel 
    em
    pathy 
    Verse 14
    towards 

    the 
    ones 
    who 
    threaten 
    me, 

    I'd 
    still 
    leave 
    them soft-shelled 
    to 
    to 
    the 

    beaks 
    of 
    crows. 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 15
    So 
    why 
    must 
    it 
    al
    ways 
    come 
    down 

    to some 
    un
    seen 
    contender? 

    I 
    don't 
    know. 

    When 
    hatchlings all 
    we 
    Verse 16
    are, 

    just 
    battling 
    the 
    whitewash 

    birds 
    above, 
    sharks 
    be
    low. 

    Verse 17
    Though 
    i 
    feel 
    empath
    y towards 

    the

    who 
    threaten

    to 
    to

    Verse 18

    And 
    that's 
    what 
    you 
    ought 
    to 

    know. 

    I'd 
    see 
    them smashed 
    on 
    the 
    reefs 
    be

    Outro 1
    low.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
