The Bones of You Lyrics


So I'm there charging around with a juggernaut brow
Overdraft, speeches and deadlines to make
Cramming commitments like cats in a sack
Telephone burn and a purposeful gaitWhen out of a doorway
The tentacles stretch of a song that I know
And the world moves in slow-mo
Straight to my head like the first cigarette of the dayAnd it's you and it's me
And we're sleeping through the day
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles awayDo I have time? A man of my caliber stood in the street
Like a sleepwalking teenager I know
And I dealt with this years ago
I took a hammer to every mementoBut image on image like beads on a rosary
Pulled through my head as the music takes hold
And the sickener hits, I can work till I break
But I love the bones of you that I will never escapeAnd it's you and it's me
And we're sleeping through the day
And I'm five years ago

And three thousand miles awayAnd I can't move my arm
For the fear that you will wake
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles awayAnd I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles awayAnd it's you and it's me
And we're sleeping through the day
And I'm five years ago
And three thousand miles away
