Lyrics

God, throw me a bone
Don't make a dying dog live for too long
Don't make a broken bird sing one more song
God, spare me a scrap I starve at your table while you're getting fat
I beg at your feet until I collapse
God, give a command I'm eager to please your every demand
But you let me run in circles again
Some people get signs, some get a father
I got a black hole and thoughts I should slaughter
I'm tied to a what if
Chained to a maybe
I keep going back thinking something is changing
I beg for a bone I beg for a scrap
I want a command still I get nothing back
I won't get nothing back
God, look at these teeth covered in blood I just needed to eat
Why make a stomach that you won't feed
God, where is your death your trying to kill me but won't take my breath
You've mastered the bullet, but grazed me instead
God, why this pretend why lock the door when you invited me in
If we're all gonna die then why even begin
Some people get signs some get a father
I got a black hole and thoughts I should slaughter
I'm tied to a what if chained to a maybe
I keep going back, thinking something is changing
I beg for a bone I beg for a scrap
I want a command still I get nothing back
I won't get nothing back
