About This Track

'Dragon Bones' by Jamie T is a 2016 alternative track from the album 'Trick'. The lyrics tumble through a claustrophobic breakup register, with images of being turned inside out, a threat expressed in dark hypotheticals, and the blunt recoil of pleading for someone to leave your head and bed. There is also a streak of predatory romance, framed through “cannibal love” language and animalised, lie-heavy devotion.

"Dragon Bones" is a track by Jamie T, from the album Trick, released 1st September 2016. The track is 4:09 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 15 articles about Jamie T.

Lyrics

Dragon Bones

Upside down
Inside out
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out
Fifty thousand feet up in the clouds
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out
Rolling the dice two and a three
There ain't nothing left if you're leaving me
Get out of my head get out of my bed
Cannibal love animal lies
Annabel's heart annabel's thighs
Everything now that you've ever dreamed of
Upside down inside out
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out
Fifty thousand feet up in the clouds
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out
Now that you're born now I can't breathe
I feel the rush from the empathy, yeah
And I wanna touch and all I wanna be
He's the only one you ever need
High strung maestro plants the seed, yeah
And I don't know and I feel like it's killing me
When I see you wishing you drag me home
When I see you wishing on dragon bones
When I see you wishing you drag me home
When I see you wishing on dragon bones
Upside down (yeah)
Inside out (on dragon bones)
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out (on dragon bones)
Fifty thousand feet up in the clouds (on dragon bones)
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out
Hit the brakes
I just feel your love
'Cause you're all ('cause you're all)
That I want (that I want)
Yeah you're all (yeah you're all) That I need (that I need)
Baby please (baby please) Take my hand (take my hand)
Because this love ('cause this love) Is killing me (killing me)
When I see you Wishing you drag me home
When I see you Wishing on dragon bones
When I see you Wishing you drag me home
When I see you Wishing on dragon bones
Upside down (yeah) Inside out (on dragon bones)
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out (on dragon bones)
Fifty thousand feet Up in the clouds (on dragon bones)
If I had a gun I'd blow my brains out
Upside down (on dragon bones) Inside out (on dragon bones)
If I had a gun (on dragon bones) I'd blow my brains out (on dragon bones)
Fifty thousand feet (on dragon bones) Up in the clouds (on dragon bones)
If I had a gun (on dragon bones) I'd blow my brains out (on dragon bones)
On dragon bones, bones, bones
On dragon bones, bones, bones
On dragon bones, bones, bones
On dragon bones, bones, bones
On dragon bones, bones, bones
