Brittle Bones

Oh, what a fine line

We tread with our brittle bones

Tossing the fire

Between our little homes

I drowned in the water

And you turned into and stone

Too good to be true

But I guess we'll never know

I hate to adore you

I really have to let this go

Flick of a switch, goodbye

Did you ever even care at all?

You could never save me

From all these silent screams

I thought you said maybe

But now you're so far from me

And all this time you haven't asked how have I been?

I can't believe you've barely said a thing

It's time for me to finally cut the string

You come back from time to time now and again

Upon your fingertips I'm dangling

I'm starting to accept that something is missing

You could never save me

From all these silent screams

I thought you said maybe

But now you're so far from me

And I live in a little world inside my head

Pretending that our book has been left unread

But I put all the words inside these pages

You could never save me

You could never save me

You could never save me
