The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Your flesh and bones
Your flesh and bones
Your flesh and bones
You go down to take it all
But you already know it’s hard
And you stop but he’s waiting on her
You go down to take it all but you already know it’s hard
If I gotta ride like you want
Eating up whatever you got
Keep my lies up, you know
Oh you force it all, oh you need it all
Trying to keep a face up tonight
Even though the guy's got you right
Coming off the wrong side, you know
Oh you force it all
You start it right
You tread so light
You tease this love
You care enough
You can rearrange me now
If we wait we can make it somehow
Well what you want, what you want
Anything you want
You start it right
You tread so light
You tease this love
You care enough
