Queen Wolf - Bones Turn to Rust Lyrics



Queen Wolf - Bones Turn to Rust Lyrics




It's been raining for 17 years and I'm drowning in here
Jumped from the fire to land in the flood...
I am a nervous creature it's just in my nature
Born to a body with not enough power in the blood
I've been making the same mistakes, and I know where it takes me:
Singing with the saints, or swimming in the mud

This worry lives long after our bones have turned to rust
And this body is treacherous

Standing all alone, burning like a vacant home
With a face as unfazed as a monolith
You're the type to raze the temples to the ground
Then sort the coals for a seed to grow a diamond with
And if they never see the sun...too bad for the other kids
Take their breath away and give them a cigarette kiss

You know I tried but I just...
I don't keep that room in my heart anymore
I don't sleep where serpents crawl on the floor
I don't go looking for signs when I should look for a door

We knew the risk in what we stoked
But still kissed the ashes until we choked, and
Craving a heat only sparks evoke
Feeding the fire until it turned to smoke
We fought the fever til one of us broke
