Skin and Bones - Steady Hands

I took your heart through an amusement park

That I’m betting you wouldn’t want to go back

So I filled my guts with some degenerate stuff

With your finger pointed down my throat

So shake me to the bone

You can take my fucking heart and leave us both the hell alone

'Cause my blood’s been getting thinner

All my limbs are feeling numb

As I need you more than I need these skin and bones

See, I’ve been counting down these days

And we both turned the other cheek

'til we were spitting out teeth

I let this love turn into lust

And somehow, everyone got fucked

It’s just that certain type of luck

So shake me to the bone

You can take my fucking heart and leave us both the hell alone

'Cause my blood’s been getting thinner

And my limbs are feeling numb

But I need you more than I need these skin and bones

So beat me up and kick my ass

I’ve been a wreck since I last left

Let me explore

'cause I’m pretty sure the world’s worth fighting for

One of these days, you’ll come back

Retie this noose around my neck

And I’m pretty sure

That I hate myself but I love you more

So shake me to the bone

Give me back my fucking heart

You’ve had it long enough on a rope

'Cause the weather ain’t getting better

Can’t afford to be alone

This ain’t my end, my lovely skin and…

So shake me to the bone

You can take my fucking heart and leave us both the hell alone

'Cause my blood’s been getting thinner

And my lungs have turned to stone

But I need you more than I need these skin and bones
