lyrics

I feel the heat from my bones
Burn through my skin
If I didn’t know better
I’d say this was it
But I know I am alive, I have to stay alive
To see what will happen after our ashes
Grow into something new
It's the least I could do for you

You’re an angel sent to me
Not the skeletons you think you keep
We could grow older together
‘Til we turn to skeletons ourselves
Even if we walk through hell
At least we’ll have these stories to tell

Feet first, I’ll jump into
The fire you stoke
Tell me it’s still burning
Not a cloud of smoke
I know it’s alive, you have to stay alive
Everything I went through to finally get to you
I’d go through it all again
If you would just let me in

You’re an angel sent to me
Not the skeletons you think you keep
We could grow older together
‘Til we turn to skeletons ourselves
Even if we walk through hell
At least we’ll have these stories to tell

Not the skeletons you keep
Not the skeletons you keep
Not the skeletons you keep
You're an angel sent to me

You’re an angel sent to me
Not the skeletons you think you keep
We could grow older together
‘Til we turn to skeletons ourselves
'Cause you made me believe in something
That I couldn’t see
Even if we walk through hell
At least we’ll have these stories to tell

These stories to tell
