A5
I am only flesh
and bones
A5
Splintered glass
and tattered clothes

behind the skin
my fragility
D5
behind the skin a
skeletal impracticality
A5
I am only pieces

of you held together
with paper glue

behind the skin
my divinity
D5
behind the skin my
only sanctuary
Refrain:
A5
You can lean on me
have a drink on me
leave your mark
A5
all over me
paint the outside
till it smiles
A5
you can eat off me
rest your head on me
D5
press yourself on top of me
kick the back until its quiet
Chorus 1:
A5 E5
All in all I'm just furniture
G5
Just another piece taking you
F5
one step further from the

All in all I'm just furniture
G5
In these 4 walls that hold me
F5
keep me safe under sound
A5
and bare within its grip
Verse 2:
A5
My wooden heart
it sings no more

This dress I wear
becomes the floor
A5
behind the skin a
living breathing thing
D5
behind the skin a place
you've never been
(Repeat Refrain)

keep me safe under sound
and bare within its grip
