Spider Lyrics

By a thread

I wish I was dead

A spider spun

Come someone

I am a spider

An outsider

Get the broom

There is no room

For me here

In the clear

It's here I survive

Fear me I thrive

Fear me I thrive

I'll eat you alive

Itty bitty small

Climb the wall

When will it catch

I cannot detach

Venom they vilify

Decry an evil eye

My silk is strong

They have me wrong

And rain on me as I spin

In my story I rise again

I just start again

Everyday I spin

I can't win

I can't begin

There's no butterfly built in

Here I've always been

Here I'll always live

I don't forgive

I am resistive

I will outlive

My teeth like a shiv

Down the waterspout I slid

Who are you to kid

I did what I always did

You are just a katydid

Firefly and I closed the lid

I'm not the villain god forbid

I'd have crashed the ship

On board your power trip

I would make the seams rip

Make the balance tip

Burned the house with me in it

No I will not quit

In this life I take the fall and the hit

And say this ain't shit

I get what I get

I carry on while the small ones flit

I spin shine as I knit

I don't forgive but I do let it quit

There are too many war crimes to commit

And I'd be a hypocrite

I once was a villain I admit

Never a victim don't forget

But my life is mine and you can sit

I am the heroine and the misfit

Best read the fucking script

It's here I survive

Fear me I thrive

Fear me I thrive

I'll eat you alive
