Pentagram Tattoo
Childhood Rebellion: Tiny Tomboy's Pentagram Tattoo Tale
Lyrics
We hung out after school
We spent time together after school.
Laughed at horror movies
We shared laughter while watching horror movies.
Went outside in hurricanes
We ventured outside during hurricanes.
Cursed at pigeons in the rain
We expressed frustration by cursing at pigeons in the rain.
You went to Catholic school
You attended Catholic school.
And terrorized the nuns
You mischievously troubled the nuns.
Oh rock and roll perverted you
Rock and roll influenced and changed you.
So did that pentagram tattoo
A pentagram tattoo played a role in your transformation.
And I spent all my time with you
I dedicated a significant amount of time to be with you.
For so long
Emphasizing the duration of our close connection.
So long
Reiteration of the enduring nature of our relationship.
We agreed
We agreed to adhere to a specific dress code.
To a strict dress code
Describing the dress code as camo pants and shredded tees.
Oh camo pants and shredded tees
We wore pink only as a form of irony.
Only wore pink ironically
You expressed boredom and a desire to harm our parents.
You said, "I'm bored"
Shock and disbelief at your suggestion, referencing Sonic Youth.
"Let's kill our parents and leave"
I continued to spend considerable time with you.
With disbelief I looked at you
Reiteration of the lasting nature of our connection.
Said you got the idea from Sonic Youth
Expressing a willingness to make sacrifices for you.
And I spent all my time with you
Reflection on the impact of your departure on my life.
For so long
Re-emphasizing the enduring nature of our relationship.
So long
Reiteration of the lasting nature of our connection.
And I would've gone blind for you
Expressing a willingness to make sacrifices for you.
For so long
Reiteration of the enduring nature of our relationship.
So long
Reiteration of the lasting nature of our connection.
On my birthday you moved away
Reference to a significant event – your departure on my birthday.
Never again saw your face
Never seeing your face again after you moved away.
Childhood days filled with grace
Recollection of childhood days characterized by grace.
Thought we'd die in the same place
An expectation that we would share the same fate in life.
On my birthday you moved away
Repetition of the impact of your departure on my birthday.
Never again saw your face
Reiteration of never seeing your face again.
Childhood days filled with grace
Recollection of childhood days characterized by grace.
Thought we'd die in the same place
An expectation that we would share the same fate in life.
On my birthday you moved away (And I spent all)
Repetition of the impact of your departure on my birthday.
Never again saw your face (My time with you)
Reiteration of never seeing your face again.
Childhood days filled with grace (For so long)
Recollection of childhood days characterized by grace.
Thought we'd die in the same place (So long)
An expectation that we would share the same fate in life.
On my birthday you moved away (And I would've)
Repetition of the impact of your departure on my birthday.
Never again saw your face (Gone blind for you)
Reiteration of never seeing your face again.
Childhood days filled with grace (For so long)
Recollection of childhood days characterized by grace.
Thought we'd die in the same place (So long)
An expectation that we would share the same fate in life.
