I Wear It Like Bones

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

 

It drives me like blood, like water through rocks

It drags me by the hair, it speaks to me it talks

It whispers, it screams

It powers my dreams

It follows me home, it slips through cracks and seams

It shadows and it stalks and it picks all of my locks

It wakes me should I sleep, it tells me what to think

It keeps me in its thrall, crashes through every wall

 

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

 

It reigns over my will, it holds dominion tight

It keeps me on alert, surveils me through the night

It tells me what to do, but I don't know if it's true

It plays tricks with the light, obscures my line of sight

It keeps me in its grip and it does not let me slip

And I can't see how to tell if it's evil or means well

At once I'm overthrown, it won't let me alone

 

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones

I wear it like bones
