There was something in you that I never quite
Managed to find
I kept searching, for my own piece of mind
Trying to find somebody kind
It's not better to have loved than lost
It's better not to feel the pain
And I
Keep searching for a lover
In the bones of a girl
That I once knew
And I
Really hope I find a heart there
But I know that it's a corpse
I keep in my bedroom
You were some kind of angel
Caught up in a permanent disguise
And I'm sick of all the lies
It's not better to have loved than lost
It's better not to feel the pain
And I
Keep searching for a lover
In the bones of a girl
That I once knew
And I
Really hope I find a heart there
But I know that it's a corpse
I keep in my bedroom
And I will learn to let you go
Just as soon as it feels like I'll survive on my own
(I'm broken down)
And I will learn to set you free
Because I know what you need
And it's a lifetime away from me
And I
Keep searching for a lover
In the bones of a girl
That I once knew
(Whoa)
And I
Really hope I find a heart there
(In the bones)
But I know that it's a corpse
I keep in my bedroom
And I
Keep searching for a lover
In the bones of a girl
That I once knew
