LYRICS:

What’s this?
You don’t want a relationship?
What are we doing here?
I thought I was pretty clear

Good time girls
And fast boys say
You can be mine
Tonight anyway

Just like a prayer
Rest both hands against my chest
Blessed be those
I’m on my own

I will never
I will never know
All my guts, splattered on the table
If I should die
At least I’ll know
The glory of these broken bones

If you’re down I’m down
Lay with me
You hold nothing back
I’m ready to attack

Breaks they come they go
Luck is down I know
With nothing to lose
I have so much to lose

Cuz I’m up to my eyeballs in needs
Down to my last cent so please
Give me a sign
I’m not wasting my time

I will never
I will never know
All my guts, splattered on the table
If I should die
At least I’ll know
The glory of these broken bones

I like how you like me, how you see me, How you know me
I like how hold me, how you’re kind,
How you show me
Who I am good and bad it’s the only
Now you’re gone, I’m not alone but I’m So lonely

So tell me to my face
Don’t save me the disgrace
I want to see your lips move
When you tell me it’s too soon
I want to see your eyes
When you tell me the reasons why
I want to see your eyes
When you tell me goodbye

I will never
I will never know
All my guts, splattered on the table
If I should die
At least I’ll know
The glory of these broken bones
