Beautiful Bones

We leave you in the care of the lions. Void of any emotion we walk away
Studied in the science of silence, you know what we wanted without us saying
I can see your breath in the midnight air
I will try to hold it before it disappears
Down to your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted
From your tips to your toes
Down to your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted
Why don’t you love me like you loved me
Alchemy of gold, in your hands
You lit up like a burning schoolhouse
But you let it go out in your hands
Down to your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted ‘Til all the ships come home
To your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted Until you turn the light on
All your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted
Another night in the city without sleep
Another night I went swimming out too deep
Sinking down to your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep me delighted from your tips to you toes
Down to your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted Til all the ships come home
All your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted Until you turn the light on
Down to your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted Til all the ships come home
All your beautiful bones. You ever owned
Keep them delighted Until you turn the light on
