Bones

You will not give in

says the soul to the skin

Now give me those animal thoughts

you've been hiding.

Rise from the bed

take the heart from the head

And ask if she really is broke.

You'll find she doesn't speak,

she was never broken;

Always asleep, oh,

and you thought he'd woken you.

Don't cheat says the soul

It's just meat on his bones

It smells sweet but your conscience

will eat at your inners

I'm calling from my cage

You'll regret that you locked me away.

Good day says the sun

The morning has come

Hide away,

without moonlight

you're pale and undone

You must listen to me,

this is what you are

It's not you that he'll see if you hold me afar.

You know my dearest friend

You'll be sorry when all of this ends.

I told you

Hold tight to my hands

I speak truth

why did you not

Hold your ground?

You let go to run with his soul

And now he let go

You're falling down.

If I've been hiding

while you've been deciding

To throw all I have for you

on the floor.

I've been calling, calling,

calling your name

And now that you've fallen

I'm hoping again.

That you listen to me

you listen to me.

You will not give in.
