start this story with a dead girl
that’s what makes it just like the others
hey jackie baby it's good to see ya it's been forever
what a hit what a hit what a hit
3AM by the side of the road
whodda thought it'd be you to pull up
same old truck i forgot i forgot
i forgot ya but i guess i musta missed ya
you're asking where i been and where i went
what i done and who i met
tellin' me who's asked and tellin' me who's wondered
the state of the hearts of my mom and ex-lovers
who's shacking up with so-and-so's brother
everyone got married everyone died
everyone's pregnant my oh my
everyone's pregnant my oh my
jackie, do you think it hurts
to hear ‘bout what i left behind?
i'll tell ya now it hurts less
than it did before i left
chorus
even kids lose sleep
even kids lose sleep
thinkin' bout shit like that
even kids lose sleep
even kids lose sleep
thinkin' bout shit like that
un-huh
i worked in an orchard one lonely fall
eating apples straight from the tree
shiftless, shirtless under the night sky
i was always like this they just tried to stop me
the first of the month at the laundromat
haven't found many nights better than that
goin' in dirty comin' out clean
i'm feelin' righteous feelin' mean
i slept in a boxcar in thirty below
jackie, i thought i'd die but i lit a fire
most of my life summed up just so--
i thought i'd die but i lit a fire
chorus
even kids lose sleep
ow
jackie, i wanna dance with you
tonight
start your story with a dead girl
that’s what makes it just like the others
that's the story they'll most believe
go back and tell 'em what happens to
girls like me
On "DNA ACTIVATION" Witch Prophet sings from her heart and soul, connecting, resonating, and inspiring the listener.
Fusing together elements of electronic, RnB, Jazz, Ambient, and Hip Hop, "DNA ACTIVATION" is an incredible blend of sounds and moods that comes highly recommended. rikm
Each line on this album is delivered with malice, and each word hits like a mace to the skull. Backxwash uses raw aggression to vent frustration and anguish in a way that evokes an anger with the world rather than a pity for her. Luke Warmwater
