Broken Necks Songtext
von Ó

When I had a million arms
I would wrap them around
All your body parts
Try to keep away
All that could do you harm
Try to keep out sickness
And keep you warm
But every time the going got tough
One by one, they were falling off
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck
Just to stick it out for you
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck
Just to stick it out for you
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck


Just to stick it out for you
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck
Just to stick it out for you
And I know we′d hang out every day
If I wasn't 100 miles away
From our tadpoles gathering
In the creek
And our baby birds
Learning how to shriek
All the eagles I still haven′t seen
And the trees proudly alive and green
I could swear, they are there
Just for you and me
Whether friends or in love
There's an indisputable beauty
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck
Just to stick it out for you
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck
Just to stick it out for you
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck
Just to stick it out for you
While you were breaking your neck
Trying to keep your head up
I was breaking my neck
Just to stick it out for you
If the distance between us
Grows too strong
I would saturate silence
With your songs
Because you'd rub my back
′Til the skin smoothed out
Smoother than the class
That the sea spits out
And don′t forget to take your shirt off
Run into the water
The birds are singing louder
And the days are getting longer
Open up your hands
And accept that this has ended
Nothing in this world
Is holier than friendship
