Oh lord is it what we really want?
I fear the bones inside your body
I feel them grow.

Oh lord there's a terror in the dark
I fear there's nothing in our love
I feel it grow.

In your limbs and arms and bones
I know that we're strong
Thinking "what's the harm?"

There's a fire in my chest
It will extinguish when you're dead
It's you i love to hold
Before the bones they slowly grow.

Oh lord is it what we really want?
I fear the bones inside your body
I feel them grow.

Oh lord there's a terror in the dark
I fear there's nothing in our love
I feel it grow.

In your limbs and arms and bones
I know that we're strong
Thinking "what's the harm?"

And i heard you'll grow old
Your muscles turn to bones
Trapped in a pretty pose
And in your family home
I dreamt of our love alone
And singing to just one
It's you i love to hold
Before the bones crush your throat.
