Skin & Bone

I will try and sleep tonight
You're the one I won, so try
To be left alone by the flesh and bone
That want you by their side
I slept on my back until you woke me up
Now I can't sleep anymore
Awake in my bed
The rest that I've lost adds up our time from before
You lie awake too, restless and warm
Your body pressed up against mine
Cool to the touch, your fingertips dance
They move, they fall, they shine
At unreasonable hours I wake from my bed
Slowly pacing around
I sit at the table, drink water, and breathe
Your sleeping is the only sound
Your unmoving eyelids are closed tight and yawning
Still tired from the night before
From the dawn of your slumber, they're open and aching
Touching the sunlight once more

Better Off Dead

I've got restless legs for my heavy heart
So my feathered frame is tempted by tar
I'm digging my own grave, just to save my own face
From becoming more than nothing
Or nothing left to say
Throws of love, we are obsessed
Show ribs, lungs ripped from my chest
Limbs never off the side of my bed
Endeavor tied time to my head
Shrugging off everything that was ever said
I said I'm better off if I'm better off dead

Ghost Girl

Ghost Girl, I'm in love with your little ghost world
Tell me that forever you're supposed to be my best and better
And hope to spend our lives together
You'll choke soon on the tar and feather of
Smoke who sees our dance a deadly disease and
Hearts are heavy, but soon these wings are ready to fly
I love you, Ghost Girl
I love you, Ghost Girl
I love you, Ghost Girl
I love you, Ghost Girl
I want to see what it is in your world
That makes you ghostly and made you this girl
I know that I have no other to love
So please, my ghostly girl, tell me where you're from
