All Skeleton and Veins

You’re all skeletons and veins (or something like that) Just a pile of bones hanging on an empty frame With walls that feel too close for comfort (You romanticize the dark as she sings your name) I want the moon to light up your bed And your flesh as we wait for the dark We’re counting empty minutes so we can feel our ribs as they sink Finding empty beds of flowers and empty bottles and empty seats Stones carved in cemeteries with graves emblazoned with no names Skeletons and souls, we are hanging hearts on empty frames
