Lyrics
Elly
Some people are born with favor,
Some born from regret.
I felt the weight of the lonesome
Like a rock around my neck.
I was wounded and a target
By the bullies; no one stopped it.
All I was ever seeking
Was someplace that felt like home.
Wayward to the world,
I held the hurt inside.
An orphan can’t escape,
But the music raised me right.
A child not adored,
Rejected, not perfected—
The pills became my sword.
I'm in this guitar
As it fills this room.
You sing the words;
I play the tune.
My name is Elly,
Embedded in wood.
I took my own life;
I was so misunderstood.
Please… sing for me,
Sing for me,
So I can live on.
I'm finally home.
You are the breath, and I am the bones.
Ohhhhhh, ohhhh, ohhh!
You are the breath, and I am the bones.
It wasn’t all in vain.
I soaked beneath the strings.
I hoped someone would find me,
And I would find some peace.
My ghost is in the metal,
Fingerprints and broken dreams.
I’ll play along right with you,
And I’ll listen while you sing.
