i’m so good here on my own
so why did i yell at you over the phone
why do i yell at you at all
the wounds are open and they’re still raw
you make me feel just like a tool
something you mastered how to use
that makes your spine stand straight and tall
the wounds are open and they’re still raw
so tell me how come i gave you my life
before i even knew what i would find
you knew the whole time what lay ahead
you’ve only ever had to not be dead
so tell me how come i gave you my life
before it was ever even mine
you had yours since you were my age
i watched mine try to grow in a cage
i’m so good here on my own
i know more now than i’ve ever known
and i’ve never held it against you
i just hold it against myself still
i’m so good here on my own
i know more now than i’ve ever known
and i’ve never held it against you
i just hold it against myself still
What does "fuvk" mean in the first place? Well, find the letter "v" on a computer keyboard, and it will strike you immediately. An unusual name for an artist, and so is her music. I don't know from which corner of her head Shirley Zhu gets all of these splendid song ideas - but nevermind, I hope this source never runs dry. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
