Meltdown Lyrics

How's it goin?
What you up to? How ya been?
I see you're shooting ducks down
In a shooting pen again
Yeah, I could use the change
I've scraped the wishing well
And I bought the excuse that
Someone's joy should be my Hell
Thaw me out and warm my heart
Before I get consumed
By the angry bits of broken dreams
In my self-inflicted wounds

Love, it's in the bones
Love, it's in the blood
Love, it's in the skin
But you can't let it out
If you don't let it in

Please excuse my nickel-and-dime
It seems I spend my tender mercies
All the time
Should I base my decisions
On the feelings that I feel?
Or base my feelings on decisions
And pretend the feeling's real?
I'll wait for good times and peace
To live and love
Pretty soon I'll find my time's run out
And my heart's turned to dust
'Cause the world keeps turning
Whether you live or you die
You can go it alone
Or leave your footprints
On some hearts and minds
And sometimes they tear
And sometimes they bleed
And sometimes a heartfelt whipping
Is just the thing you need
Love, it's in the bones
Love, it's in the blood
Love, it's in the skin
But you can't let it out
If you don't let it in
Love, it's in the bones
Love, it's in the blood
Love, it's in the skin
But you can't let it out
If you don't let it in

{Instrumental}

Love, it's in the bones
Love, it's in the blood
Love, it's in the skin
But you can't let it out
If you don't let it in

Love, it's in the bones
Love, it's in the blood
Love, it's in the skin
But you can't let it out
If you don't let it in
