Bones

(album: Toothpick - 2016)

Yeah
Yeah, okay
Alright

I could feel it in my bones
The night was young, and I never take it slow
I saw her across the room
Even now, I can smell her perfume
She had a plunging neckline
A skirt short like my patience
She with some guy
But I knew right then she was my lady

So I told her
I claim you
I crave you
Shit, I'd pay you
You're everything that I want
And I can see your bad for me
But I'm an addict and I've got
A love for what I don't need

I could hear her on the phone
We moved in together way too soon
She would laugh alone
And I was jealous and suspicious of who she was talking to

One day I was coming home
And I pushed the door away
I saw her moaning
Underneath some other strange, strange man
So I shot that fucker down
I spread his blood across the wall

And I told her
I claim you
I crave you
I said I'll take you
You're everything that I want
And I can see your bad for me
But I'm an addict and I've got
A love for what I don't need

Can you help me hide the bones?
She asked me as she laid under his arms
He was limp as a doll
And she started to laugh when she pushed him off
She told me
Everything's fine
Grab a couple shovels it's a date night
Everything's fine
Get some paper towels for the blood, and a bag
We're gonna
Bury the bones
I know you love me don't you
I know your soul
You've got a devil inside, I'm just bringing 'em home
She said I claim you
And I said I crave you
