"Skin & Bones" lyrics

"Skin & Bones"

Yeah

They say that everything is black and white
You're in the wrong or you do what's right
But nothing's fair, no one fucking cares
All I ever learned was tragedy

Life is gonna leave you quicker than you know
Slip right through your hands when you think you've got the rope
I've seen it
(We're all, we're all)
We're all just skin
We're all just skin and bones

The Ides of March, just another sign
We made amends, but never said goodbye
And now you're gone, everything is lost
And all I ever learned is

Life is gonna leave you quicker than you know
Slip right through your hands when you think you've got the rope
I've seen it
(We're all, we're all)
We're all just skin
We're all just skin and bones
(We're all, we're all)
We're all just skin
We're all just skin and bones

Even darkness must pass
A new day will come
And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer
Those were the stories that stayed with you, that meant something
Even if you were too small to understand why
So as I surround myself with memories
And as I re-read this tattered book
I won't weep when I get to the end
I'll turn to the first page and read it again

These are the passages that made us
Who we are, and who we were
These are the episodes that showed us
Who we are, and who we were

Life is gonna leave you quicker than you know
Slip right through your hands when you think you've got the rope
I've seen it
(We're all, we're all)
We're all just skin
We're all just skin and bones
(We're all, we're all)
We're all just skin
We're all just skin and bones
