Betrayed by Bones Lyrics by Hellogoodbye

Would It Kill You?

2010

[Verse 1]
Oh, how could it be
That tendons bound to bones within my feet
Were bound to believe
That they should move themselves to up and leave?
I should say that I’m sorry on their behalf
I should say something funny
But you will not laugh

[Verse 2]
Oh, I didn’t see
The steps I took had taken you from me
Where would we be
If I let myself be swept away to sea?
I would cry out to tell you
But you’d not be there
I would cry out to tell you
But you wouldn’t care

[Chorus]
I could lead a stationary life and you will see
You’ll believe my love is carried to you by my feet
My bones are wrong, sometimes
Sometimes, bones are wrong

[Bridge]
I know I’m not leaving
I know, I believe it

[Verse 3]
Oh, how could it be
Those teeny little things within your knees
Bring you to me?
And they can keep on moving when you sleep
I know I'm not leaving you all alone
I know, I believe it and so do my bones

And so do my bones
And so do my bones

[Chorus]
I could lead a stationary life and you will see
You'll believe my love is carried to you by my feet
My bones are wrong, sometimes
Sometimes, bones are wrong
