<b>Bamboo Bones</b> by <i>Against Me!</i><br />on't let them break you.<br />

Don't let them tell you who you are.<br />

Doesn't matter where you come from, <br />

You'll always have a floor to sleep on.<br />

And you have your bamboo bones, <br />

Nervous energy, <br />

Blind ambition, <br />

Skin of your teeth.<br />

Push back, push back, push back, <br />

With every word and every breath.<br />

<br />

What god doesn't give to you, <br />

You've got to go and get for yourself.<br />

<br />

I'm embarrassed to admit it, <br />

I've got no grip.<br />

I'm leading with my jaw.<br />

Can you see it from a distance?<br />

Does it look ridiculous?<br />

I guess that's just what I have to live with.<br />

Still I have a mind to think, <br />

Knees to break, <br />

You standing beside me.<br />

I'm going to push back, push back, push back, <br />

With every word and every breath.<br />

<br />

What god doesn't give to you, <br />

You've got to go and get for yourself.
