There's not much between my skin and bones
Swear they've gotten sharper as I've grown
And it's my own fault that fact is known
I robbed my comfort all alone
So when I lay on you with my body of stones
And you tell me you love me in the kindest tone
I wait patiently for you to groan
But you won't
I have my suspicions about why you keep me so close
It has something to do with the foundation of your home
My unpredictability
Brings you familiarity
So now, you find comfort in my bones
I disappear from time to time
I need space so I can walk the line
Between life and death and then pick a side
And I always end up on the right
And you watch me gamble with my life
And you brush my scars and let me keep my knife
Cause you know stealing darkness won't show me the light
And you know I'm not one to give up a fight
I have my suspicions about why you keep me so close
It has something to do with the foundation of your home
My unpredictability
Brings you familiarity
So now, you find comfort knowing I'll go
I'll pack up and leave just to come back again
And I'll question how this doesn't fuck with your head
I see in black and white and in shades of red
And I openly sing about wanting to be dead
Yet you're still here
You swear you won't disappear
I think the end is near
But for you, I'll make it wait
A few years
I have my suspicions about why you keep me so close
