Blood and Bones and Skin Songtext
von Chely Wright

A car missing its engine
The earth, without the sun
A book of empty pages
A cop without a gun

A church with no believers
A star without a name
A fight with no good reason
And the tracks without a train

That′s what I am
Since you left
Nothing round here
Makes any sense
It's a shame that God went through such trouble
To make me all I am
But without your love
I′m just a waste
Of blood and bones and skin


I know
I should be thankful
For my blood and bones and skin

I'm as healthy as a horse, they say
But without a race to win
I'm as pointless as a guillotine
In a room of petty thieves
Or a teenage boy
With a rake in his hand
Staring up, at all the leaves

That′s what I am
Since you left
Nothing round here
Makes any sense
It′s a shame that God went through such trouble
To make me all I am
But without your love
I'm just a waste
Of blood and bones and skin

Yeah, without your love
I′m just a waste
Of blood and bones and skin
