Little Bones from Shivers by Love & Pain

all of my life i held onto time
always running from the end

started so small
little bones little breath
a foward march
but i resist
was it harmless
little words little death
or was it reckless
ball up my fist

these little bones
oh how they’ve grown
sleeping under skin
to devour us whole
through the glass
half empty or smashed
the sand slips down
and I lose control

oh my dear will you tell me again
please please please
will you say, “this is the end”

is this the end
are you the hunter
cause i’m not running anymore

is the heart afraid
does it beat the same
can you take out the arrow
and insert the flame
is the heart afraid
does it bleed the same
can you take out the knife
and insert the cage

oh my dear will you tell me again
please please please
will you say, “this is the end”
