I do not speak of the ache in my shoulders They bear the burdens I willingly paid for You have your own they live deep in the folds Of your cynical mind like mice I have been bit by them two times or thrice And the skin on my hand became tough to the touch Now they sleep deeply you oil the crease of my palm In all my dreams I’m more careful than kind Keep my two hands clean and my tongue on ice I dare you and dare you to fool me twice I’d pay any price to be right Cause you didn’t speak until it got real bad You didn’t speak, then you broke what you had Let time run its course I never could forget, but I’ll forgive like a dog Somewhere in my bones these wounds they make their homes But I’m glad you’re home I wait by the door, licking the floor How long can a man ignore a beast and her sores? I know a girl who makes bare of the world Because the light that she wears takes more eyes than is fair She holds the weight of a heart that yearns foremost to love I saw her love and read her lover’s love She burned red, I turned green, did I know anything But when push came to shove, love it wasn’t enough We know nothing Cause he didn’t speak until it got real bad He didn’t speak, are we to go mad? Must time run its course? I never could forget, but I’ll forgive like a dog Somewhere in my bones these wounds they make their homes but I’m glad you’re home I wait by the door licking the floor How long can a man ignore a beast and her sores?
Dear Maita & crew - if you read this, I’m like the biggest anti indie music cynic who naturally avoids this style of music, especially from Portland. That being said, holy shit 🤯. Easily hands down one of the best tracks to ever come out of the Rose City. You guys absolutely nailed everything great out of the laid back 90’s. BRAVO 👏🏼
I love this song. It makes me feel sad for the life of the girl in the song. How is it possible for a person you once loved to do so much harm? And I think of all those people who were left alone like me, when we still need our partner, but she doesn't love us anymore. So, I understand the lyrics of the song, word for word.

I do not speak of the ache in my shoulders
They bear the burdens I willingly paid for
You have your own they live deep in the folds
Of your cynical mind like mice
I have been bit by them two times or thrice
And the skin on my hand became tough to the touch
Now they sleep deeply you oil the crease of my palm
In all my dreams I’m more careful than kind
Keep my two hands clean and my tongue on ice
I dare you and dare you to fool me twice
I’d pay any price to be right
Cause you didn’t speak until it got real bad
You didn’t speak, then you broke what you had
Let time run its course
I never could forget, but I’ll forgive like a dog
Somewhere in my bones these wounds they make their homes
But I’m glad you’re home
I wait by the door, licking the floor
How long can a man ignore a beast and her sores?
I know a girl who makes bare of the world
Because the light that she wears takes more eyes than is fair
She holds the weight of a heart that yearns foremost to love
I saw her love and read her lover’s love
She burned red, I turned green, did I know anything
But when push came to shove, love it wasn’t enough
We know nothing
Cause he didn’t speak until it got real bad
He didn’t speak, are we to go mad?
Must time run its course?
I never could forget, but I’ll forgive like a dog
Somewhere in my bones these wounds they make their homes
but I’m glad you’re home
I wait by the door licking the floor
How long can a man ignore a beast and her sores?
