Pond (US) - Spokes lyrics

She tattooed her failures on her arms which ran wrists to shoulderblades She wore them above her charm bracelet given to her on her birthday A silver wrist bound carousel given to her by her father So bright back then but tarnished since, she used to be the favorite daughter That no longer applies Expiration date went by You used to be so pretty Knuckles crack from faulty swings leaving memories of him Imprinted in the purple yellow browns that only recently began To fade back to the colors you are really supposed to be In sickened ways you guiltily found them to be so pretty Your long face wears long sleeves To hide what's underneath Everyone just thinks your clumsy The blue backed cards could only be used for flimsy construction After he took the royalty and lined his spokes with them Ferris wheels of noble men spray out the perfect rhythm The dirt hill jumps were always best he found out by the prison That's where your real father lives He didn't go down with his ship That's just what your mother told you Go
