Meat & Bones

(album: Strangers Again - 2015)

We built a tent, on your bedroom floor
We made love in it, 'til I begged for more
I didn't go home, 'til Wednesday night
My friends they laughed at my expense but they didn't ask why
No, they didn't ask why

Bless the night, I stayed up in a panic
Threading over facts and figures of my life
You calm me down, you held me in
And the fabric of my shirt became your skin

Damn, you big love
Because of you nothing that he can do will ever be enough
Damn, you my home
You threw my heart away and now today
I am just meat and bones
I'm meat and bones

And in the wake, of our disaster
I found God in every place I didn't look
He's in my hair, He's in my laughter
He's in my DNA but never in a book

Damn, you big love
Because of you nothing that he can do will ever be enough
Damn, you my home
You threw my heart away and now today
I am just meat and bones
I'm meat and bones

Grief pulled me under but still gives me purpose
I know what I lack but I still don't deserve this
I never deserve this I, never deserve this

Damn, you big love
Because of you nothing that he can do will ever be enough
Damn, you my home
You threw my heart away and now today
I am just meat and bones
You threw my heart away and now today
I am just meat and bones
I'm meat and bones
