[Verse 1] Hand-me-down teeth Secondhand claws Mud on my name Rust in my jaws (yeah) Momma stack moss in a cracked-up jar Dad flip scrap, make a ring outta rebar Floor made of crates Ceiling just caves Rain through the rocks Drip-count days Kids throw stones at my patchwork hoard I just learn math on the nail in the board [Chorus] Goblincore, goblin lore, growin up goblin poor Empty bag, empty belly, always needing goblin more (goblin more) Craft, daft, patience in the dark, tear it all apart Turn that trash into a crown, wear the world like stolen art [Verse 2] Pick a bent screw Polish that lie Turn a lost lock to a watchful eye Late-night stitchin in a lantern hum Thread through the thumb till the feeling numb (ugh) Laugh when they point I just write plans Schemes in the soot on the backs of my hands Dream in the drip from the cavehouse roof Make a whole throne from a broken tooth [Chorus] Goblincore, goblin lore, growin up goblin poor Empty bag, empty belly, always needing goblin more (always more) Craft, daft, patience in the dark, tear it all apart Turn that trash into a crown, wear the world like stolen art [Bridge] Let ‘em say “you less than dirt” We compost hurt Plant that pain in the pit of the earth Watch that worth unearth Every shard, every scar, every spark on the floor That’s a door Kick it open, little goblin, go and get your goblin more (hey) [Chorus] Goblincore, goblin lore, growin up goblin poor Empty bag, empty belly, always needing goblin more (goblin more) Craft, daft, patience in the dark, tear it all apart Turn that trash into a crown, wear the world like stolen art
