"Jawbreaker" lyrics

[Constance:]
I rode The Cyclone with the other kids in the choir... and that's when the accident happened. We were at the top of the loop when the rollercoaster made this kind of screaming metal sound. Sparks were shooting all over the place! And then the screaming and the sparks just... stopped. And there was like this weightlessness. My heart jumped a gazillion beats a second, but I didn't scream like the other kids. No... I was just soaking it all in. 'Cause on a certain level, it was so rad! Sailing through the air upside down, you could see all the other rides, and it was like... something unlocked in me. My heart just welled out with all this love for everything! Images and all this feeling flooded into me like...

Like climbing back into my bed in the morning and feeling the heat left over from my body, hanging upside down from the monkey bars 'til my head starts to tingle, smelling Jiffy markers, listening to music, and dancing around my room before going out to a party, pretending I'm going to have the perfect time, finishing an essay, undoing a knot, pizza night, Halloween, watching my baby brother dance naked to ABBA, being in the choir at the height of the Hallelujah chorus and feeling all the voices rattling my bones- I started laughing like a crazy person, giddy with endorphins, it was all dancing leprechauns and rainbows and unicorns, streams of chocolate, whirling rides, flashing lights!

There's no shame in loving my small town. The only good things that happened to me happened in Uranium. It took a horrible accident for me to realize how goddamn wonderful everything is
