lyrics

I remember the day I blew out my shoulder
must of been twenty three and not a day older
I threw my weight as I swung to the left
then searing pain in the back of my neck

broken nose at around the same time
head banging too close to some shitty band’s backline
a crunch as I hit the PA
and I still can’t breath quite the same way
(I still can’t breath quite the same way)

fractured arm as I slid into home plate
set it quick but it still didn’t heal straight
and when the rains comes I feel a dull ache
that fucking pain often keeps me awake

dislocated hip in the outfield
must have been six months before it healed
my physio’s name is wayne
and he still comes out to all of my home games
(he still comes out to my home games)

I feel the weight of my skin on my bones
and the aches and pains that don’t feel like home
wonder when my body last felt like my own
it must have been in the offseason

heavy floods: I got swept away in Chicago
an inclipse nearly got me against the Tacos
consumers took a bite against ‘Beams
but I’m still chasing after my own dreams
(I’m still chasing after my own dreams)

I feel the weight of my skin on my bones
and the aches and pains that don’t feel like home
wonder when my body last felt like my own
it must have been in the offseason
(must have been in the offseason)
(must have been in the offseason)

we just keep running and running
and running every day cos
we are all hunting for something
and the hits that keep coming won’t keep us away

we just keep running and running
and running every day cos
we are all hunting for something
and the hits that keep coming won’t keep us away

I feel the weight of my skin on my bones
and the aches and pains that don’t feel like home
wonder when my body last felt like my own
it must have been in the offseason
(must have been in the offseason)
(must have been in the offseason)
