Bones
Laila
19 years of summer in your bones
Melts away my 19 years of shivering cold
You’re all I have
Without you it feels so fucking bad
It’s okay, it’s alright
No one’s ever wanted to fight for me
This beat up, broke down fool
You say the weather’s getting cold again
Babe, promise me you won’t try to mimic it
I know how exhausted you must be
Ripped apart and tearing at every seam
It’s okay, it’s alright
No one’s ever wanted to fight for me
This beat up, broke down fool
You said: I love you, babe
I didn’t know what to say
Caught me staring, but looked the other way
From that moment, it wouldn’t be the same
It’s okay, it’s alright
No one’s ever wanted to fight for me
This beat up, broke down fool
I’ve been to hell
A few times, each time was longer
What didn’t kill me, never made me stronger
I’ve run out of words
I can barely breathe
I used to be a girl of many
Without tripping up and stuttering
What I need to say
I just can’t seem to find the right way
The 19 years of summer in your bones
Melts away my 19 years of shivering cold
You’re all I have, when you’re here
I don’t feel so bad
