Spineless

Can you hear my spine?
It cries
For it heard me as I died
That day in seventy-eight
The day she took me as a man
Still untouched by my own hand
Told me that I was great
Inside I'm still that little boy
A violent scream inside my mind
As I forget how to cry
Felt like I was bleeding dry
All I wanted was to terminate
She used to probe my insides
Her knife my bloody bride
Now it's my words that penetrate
She felt my blooded knee and hand
I know she now understands
That she's the one who taught me hate
The last thing she will do
Is see me smiling
No life behind these eyes
It's hiding
In my spine
