lyrics

SHE SAID “MY LOVE IS LOST
AND I CANNOT BEGIN TO COUNT THE COST”
SHE SWORE TO ME THAT NONE OF THIS WAS PLANNED
YET I COULD SEE THE KNIFE STILL IN HER HAND

SHE SAID “DO NOT THINK LESS OF ME
I SIMPLY COULD NOT FIND A SPACE TO BREATHE
AND IN ONE DAY IT ALL BECAME TO MUCH
AND I BEGAN TO LOSE MY LOVE AND TRUST"

WHEN THEY TAKE ALL WE HAVE WHAT DO WE LIVE FOR
IS IT SUCH A SURPRISE?
WHEN JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE BECOMES OUR CULTURE
WE ARE LOSING OUR LIVES
CAN WE FIND STATE OF MIND TO MAKE IT MEAN MORE
TO PROVIDE SOME RELIEF
WHEN WE LOSE WHAT WE SEEK WE ARE NOTHING MORE
THAN BONES FOR THE SKELETON THIEF

WHEN WILL WE UNDERSTAND WE’RE ON THE SAME RIDE
AND WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE
WHY IS THAT NOT ENOUGH TO BRING US CLOSER
SO INSTEAD WE DIVIDE
SO REJECT THE EXPECTATION TO SELF SERVE
AND GET UP OFF YOUR KNEES
AS NO MAN MAKES A STAND WHEN HE HAS GIVEN
ALL HIS BONES TO THE SKELETON THIEF

“Bones For The Skeleton Thief” is unashamedly raw and proudly defiant. The sound of a band in a room and nothing less.
