Lyrics
One of bones, two of hearts
Reflecting on the fragility of life ("bones") and the emotional aspect of love ("hearts").
Show me just how great thou art

Feed me poison through your tongue

Breathe your smoke into my lungs
Describing a close connection by inhaling the other person's influence and essence.
Who made you fear the day?

Who taught you how to shut away?

Burning wood, sweltered skin

All from within

All from within

All from within

Never touch, never feel

Leave this world, break the seal
