In My Bones

I want to tell you how I feel
But I don't really know
I wanna eat my dinner without feeling like I've grown
I wish that we were 17 and on the next train home
I do not want to hurt you but I'm scared it's in my bones

Making jokes to hide the fact that cards could always fall
Tying knots and taking shots and skipping shitty stones
Learning what the words mean 7 years after the song
I do not want to hurt you but I'm scared it's in my bones

To grow and to shake
To know you is to know something safe
To cry and to say
I'm sorry that I'm brittle and broken today

Daylights wasting dogs are chasing robins on the lawn
Mom got mad yelled at my Dad cuz he did something wrong
I was raised in California poking dragons just for fun
I do not want to hurt you whisper softly through the phone

Catching up and packing up and borrowing your socks
Learn to tell you every single movie that I watch
Learn to be two people sewn together arm and arm
I do not want to hurt you whisper softly on the call

To grow and to change
To know you is to know I'm not brave
To lie and to chase
The reason why you're hurting and I'm hurting just the same

To snap and to sprain
To bandage it up til it's stuck in one place
To cry and to say
I do not want to hurt you
But the truth is I will hurt you
The truth is I will hurt you
I will hurt you either way
