Weerd Science Your Shovel
[Intro]
[Verse 1: Weerd Science]
I know that you have a heart
That sits in your chest
It's as big as the world
I know that you've seen the dark
And all of the hurt that
You've had to endure
I can't imagine going through
What you went through
And still making it work
So I, show you respect
Because deep in my heart
I know it's what you deserve
Does it kill you when you
See his face
Inside of his face
And hope for all
That is good in the world
That he doesn't grow up to make
The same exact mistakes
The pain it makes you stronger
At least that's what they say
But after a few years
The hurt gives way
The anger and loneliness that awaits
You may never get over the magnitude
But you manage to put a smile on it
If a god is above us how could
He not see all of the things
That get piled on
I wondered alone with my thoughts
If we could've worked
Kind of think that we would've
Try not to get caught up in the could haves
Kept your feet on the ground
When everything else in your life
Got all shook up
So hats off to the girl
Who got knocked down by the world
But then stood up
[Hook]:
Your Mother
He tried to hold her hands
Never came through
All the things we do
Do you understand? (Oh)
In the city of bastards
It were a bad (?) man (Oh)
But you keep digging
For the good
Trying to find it
Alive in them
Put your shovel down
On him
Or any of them
Down on him
Or any of them
(Put your shovel)
Down on him
Or any of them
Down on him
Or any of them
[Verse 2: Weerd Science]
Honestly I think you deserve better
I really think you deserve the best
Years ago you gave me your time
I gave you much less
There's something out there that's better
Maybe somebody puts a smile on your face
And I'm not suggesting
The father of your son
Could be replaced
[..................](?) rummage through the rubble
To unearth any good
Underneath all of our hearts
There's a piece of us
That's misunderstood
If you dig for perfection
I think you're misdirected
I think your body's tired
From all the holes
That your heart's been left in
Don't waste your life
With placeholders
Who hold their place
'Till the place is over
You tried to get me to look at my life
And face it sober
The one good thing
In all those years of dark
Not that you're perfect
But I know that you're perfectly
Pure of heart
And behind that smile
I can see that
You hurt inside
There must be constant
Reminders around you
Keeping that pain alive
I don't mean to preach
Lord knows that I've made mistakes
But I, want to see you be brave
One more time
Let it pave the way

On him
Or any of them
Down on him
Or any of them
(Put your shovel)
Down on him
Or any of them
Down on him
Or any of them
For me
Or him
Or any of them
For me
Or him
Or any of them
For me
Or him
Or any of them
