Written soon after I started treatment for aggressive cancer. A vulnerable song for a vulnerable time.
lyrics
SPARE PARTS
The miracle of you, is there was nothing I could do
Skins to be shed, Blue turns to red
Spare parts of me and you
Spare parts can be renewed, two hearts can be fused
They make us who we are, the truth can’t be far
Spare parts of me and you
Spare Parts, put me back together with my
Spare parts, I love you forever with my
Spare parts, this is something new
There’s pieces that we keep, when you dig down deep
Battling the rage, burning the sage
Spare parts of me and you
Spare Parts, put me back together with my
Spare parts, I love you forever with my
Spare parts, this is something new
