Metaphor Lyrics


I've gotten good at leaning on metaphor.
I've gotten good at living on someone else's page.
I've cut my teeth on secondhand sentiment--
You can't trust a single thing I say.I keep my closet free of skeletons
'Cause I'm much better at digging graves
But I always dig up bones in your sympathy--
I can't trust a single thing you say.Don't look too hard
'Cause you won't like the scars
He left in me.I've gotten good at making up metaphors.
I've gotten good at stretching the truth out of shape
And all these words are sweet and meaningless--
You can't trust a single thing I say
You can't trust a single thing I say
You can't trust a single thing I say
You can't trust a single thing I say

Destiny itself assembled the Crane Wives, and now they seek only to make music worthy of destiny. That, and act as silly as humanly possible. "The Crane Wife is an old Japanese tale. While there are many variations of the tale, a common version is that a poor man finds an injured crane on his doorstep (or outside with an arrow in it), takes it in and nurses it back to health. After he releases the crane, a woman appears at his doorstep with whom he falls in love and marries.
