i wanna talk about this
you wanna talk about, anything else but this
but all i am this
i've tricked my brain for this
you've been on dates three nights before and it just wasn't this
came back and cried into the pillow
so here i am doing the same
cos i know all three of your names already
head buried in chest already
one kiss on the wrist, i clearly drifted off cos here we are again
pausing for effect or does your brain work slowly
i'm fumbling my words but blaming my throat
i figured i'd figured it out by now
i figured i'd never listen but here i am doing the very same thing they always told me about, and i hate it
am i not interesting enough?
am i not interesting enough?
well clearly not
bad bad bones in my body
bad bad brain in my head
bad bad bones in my body
bad bad heart in my chest
won't let myself get cynical, won't let my heart ruin my head
i've locked myself inside before and i've always made it out again
so tell me now just what i need, cos i cannot figured this out
i'm striking down but i can't follow through and im feeling so stressed out about it
phone my mother, phone phone my father,
can't stay out here on my own
watch the sunset, holy water
think thats as far it goes
bad bad bones in my body
bad bad brain in my head
bad bad bones in my body, bad heart in my chest
i fall in love with the one girl that can stand to be around me
i swear i swear i swear, nothings ever ever gonna come between us now
cos she's so sweet, yeah she's the opposite of me
so when she's handing out an olive branch, i'm hanging from the tree
no more, not gonna be that guy
bad bad bones in my body
bad bad bones in my body,
bad bad bones in my body
bad bad bones
bad bad bones
