Bones & Skin Lyrics - (a)spera - Mirah

If you live inside the old graveyard 

your skin and bones get kinda hard 

you blame it on all of the ones who left you 

If you're in the closet with a broom 

why don't you sweep around the room 

make little piles of all the things you don't understand 

But it's in the mouth it's in the blood 

it's sweet the taste this bit of love 

poor skin too thick to understand 

the gravity and graceful plans 

in the place that's made of old relations 

where some got loved some got hated 

how absently you move around 

how listless 

how in the night the battle raged 

under the blankets where we brave 

at least enough to recognize the storm is just a storm 

Shine the lights across the bridge 

the surface you can't follow it 

the glossy name the wind in fits 

gets gerters bucklin' at their beds 

Will i be this way when i'm dead 

will I go home and go to bed 

will I wake up and wonder did something happen here 

The weatherman well he should know 

the doctor too from down below 

they call to one another cross the wild and windy night 

don't forget 

you've got love 

you've got bravery 

you've got trust 

you've got bodies 

responsibilities 

there's still mountains that's pushin' up from underneath 

you've got pain 

it's not so strange but now you've had enough 

don't forget your bones and skin 

or where you go 

or where you've been
