Bones and Gravity

I don’t remember what day it was

I only know something happened to us

When the clouds rolled in, the sky turned gray

Baby that storm took you away

Well the rain comes in when the door’s left open

Seeps through the cracks where the walls are broken

Floods like a river in it’s wake

And swallows all that it can take

Cause everything we have, was never meant to last

And all that’s left for me, are bones and gravity

I went down to the river to pray

But God didn’t have a thing to say

And I saw your reflection there

Smile at me without a care

Well I don’t trust the things I see

I’m not quite sure what I believe

But I know things you’ll never know

And honey that’s the way I’ll go

When everything we have, was never meant to last

And all that’s left for me, are bones and gravity

Now every night he comes to me

With broken things he cannot leave

He places them inside the door

And moves across the bedroom floor

He slips beyond the shadow walls

Where sunrise and the light will fall

And disappears into the dawn

Where nothing’s left for holding on

And everything we have, was never meant to last

Now all that’s left for me, are bones and gravity
