about

Inspired by Kelly Jean Davis' story, my housemate, funeral director, whose mother hid her pregnancy, so she was given to a family through the church a few days old, and later on developed a brain tumor behind her ear. It was misdiagnosed, so she had strange times.

lyrics

Kelly Jean the delible queen
Cross dressing as a man on the scene
Holding up the wall to make the fall seem
normal and less horrible

Lightning storm in her brain
The body, the body electric
Unknown electric, unknown eclectic forces at play
will she see the light of day?

Her birth was a secret handed off a few days old
Farm family saw her meek, but inside her humor rages
Sought out her birth mom
But just stepped out forever long
But the longing kept her near
She kept an eye on here

She kept an eye on her denial
that her mind was filled with raging sparks
lattices and laces between neurons exploding
that's just not a headache
It's acoustic neuroma
That's not just a headache
It's an acoustic neuroma
I think I'd better stay awake
An acoustic neuroma
That's not just a headache
An acoustic neuroma
I think I'd better stay awake
