Built on Bones

If she'd die just to get to you

Will you fly the nest for something new?

Would a lie just to get to you

Be overlooked for love that's true?

Would you be enthralled to take part

When there's a stale stench in a fresh start?

As she devastates the apple cart

And leaves another man with a broken heart

The world can never know, this love was built on bones

And I am one to know, this love was built on bones

Now the world can never know, this love was built on bones, built on bones

Fight the urges to beware

Quash the query of a doubt that would once be there

Indulgent, not-self aware

The feeling of hope was defined as rare

You're a being full of disdain

And a tied up kink in a lifeless chain

A soldier told to retrain

Forever longing praise are you glad you came?

The world can never know, this love was built on bones

And I am one to know, this love was built on bones

Now the world can never know, this love was built on bones, built on bones

Time's murky but it's clear to see

How another man's loss is another man's gain

Sense the silence cast over me

Burst my bubble with a pin that fell louder than a freight train

Lives are torn apart

She resides now next to him

Kinfolk, friends of old

Still speak highly of a man with a broken heart

Now the world can never know, this love was built on bones

And I am one to know, this love was built on bones

Now the world can never know, this love was built on bones, built on bones

And I am one to know, this love was built on bones
