"These Bones (Remix)" lyrics
(feat. Amos Lee)
The soul drunk and the body wasted
We were sleeping there
On the bathroom floor
Flattered in dreams
Deceived in waking, we were
Dragging our feet
Through the morning wars
Look around I see the fractured frame
What's left to hold up
The heart and the brain
Like shattered glass
And cracking stones, you say
You find you're broken
But you're not alone
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
Just give it time
These bones
They're broken and bent
They'll meet and they'll mend
Back together again
Well don't we break
Like dying stars
She says I never thought
We could fall this far
I sigh relieved
With each setting sun
I guess this is why
We cried when we won
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
Just give it time
These bones
They're broken and bent
They'll meet and they'll mend
Back together again
She laughs and tells me it was
Hiding in the attic
What was feared
And what was warned
Well now it's here
We're staring right at it
Well, tell me how long
Can we do this for
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
Just give it time
These bones
They're broken and bent
They'll meet and they'll mend
Back together again
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
We were sleeping there
On the bathroom floor
Flattered in dreams
Deceived in waking, we were
Dragging our feet
Through the morning wars
Look around I see the fractured frame
What's left to hold up
The heart and the brain
Like shattered glass
And cracking stones, you say
You find you're broken
But you're not alone
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
Just give it time
These bones
They're broken and bent
They'll meet and they'll mend
Back together again
Well don't we break
Like dying stars
She says I never thought
We could fall this far
I sigh relieved
With each setting sun
I guess this is why
We cried when we won
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
Just give it time
These bones
They're broken and bent
They'll meet and they'll mend
Back together again
She laughs and tells me it was
Hiding in the attic
What was feared
And what was warned
Well now it's here
We're staring right at it
Well, tell me how long
Can we do this for
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
Just give it time
These bones
They're broken and bent
They'll meet and they'll mend
Back together again
These bones
Will heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
They'll heal on their own
