Blood And Bone Lyrics

I keep wondering how you disappear
And still won't leave me alone
It's like I'm in a dead religion
My heart sacrificed on a stone
All that's left of me is blood and bone

I was hiking the traffic jam
When my heart stuck out its thumb
You slowed down, your smiling lips were red
I can't pump the brakes on that memory
Traffic lights can't stop
Your beauty living rent-free in my head
I keep wondering how you disappear
And still won't leave me alone
Deliver me from this fire
From this game in play
Release mе from desire
Or at least meet mе halfway

I put it to the Master
Of all space and time
Blood and bone is most unkind My freedom has been reckless
Ambition has cut in line
When intention fumbled in a bind

But I'm not some Casanova
She threw under the bus
I ‘ve read Augustine, Jean Paul Sartre
And the psalms
When I raise my hand in question
I hope you get a glimpse
Of dignity that was stapled to my palms
I keep wondering how you disappear
And still won't leave me alone

Deliver me from this fire
From this game in play
Release me from desire
Or at least meet me halfway
Can't beg for pardons I haven't earned
Can't find you on my phone
I keep wondering how you disappear
And still won't leave me alone
