Speedy Ortiz Pioneer Spine Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who's out triggering the soft alarm?
Barbed the entrance: now, I wanna know
Who's there feeding?
I want a name, I want a name
Just mouth it, that's fine
The hollow throws its lousy drone
And you don't want to breathe
But you'll talk

[Verse 2]
Now, absolute the zero count
Zero morphism, its arrowed frame
Whose count's empty?
I want a name, I want your name
Just write it, that's fine
The strength you've grown is monotone
But now, I've turned the key
And you can't call out again

[Hook]
Gather 'round, so empty now
All you've got is spineless sound
I want the truth
Even if I gotta rip it from you

[Verse 3]
Who's out feeding?
I fed the same
So they took my name
And I put up no fight
The void you throw is all you know
You watch me turn a key
How like you, to shirk away
A sonar's rounds
Me, I just cloister up against its shouts

[Hook]
Gather 'round, so empty now
All you've got is spineless sound
I want the truth
Even if I gotta rip it from you

But you've still got your sound
And I see you staring down
I want a name
Even though you spoiled the one I came with
