Bones Songtext
von Felix Riebl

Won′t you understand?
Won't you hold my hand?
Won′t you take me in your cover?
Won't you have me stay?
Won't you run away?
Won′t you hide me from your father?
′Cause I'm almost here
And I′m surely gone
And I'm standing in your doorway
Won′t you keep me safe?
Won't you call a chase?
Won′t you strike me down or love me?


But your silence makes me cold
And there's a crashing of the bowls that are barely touching
And you're smashing ′round the kitchen with your shuffling
And your silence makes them bones
Your silence makes them bones
Your silence makes me homesick for a place that I don′t know
And it's only since I′m gone you think you own me
And it's only since I met you I′ve been lonely
And it's only in the hiding that you show me
The door before me is closed
And your silence makes them bones

Won′t you be my friend?
Won't you be my enemy of generous destruction?
Won't you comprehend?
Won′t you send your infidels of meaningless construction?
′Cause I'm almost here
And I′m surely gone
And I'm standing in your doorway
Won′t you bring me in?
Won't you cast me out?
Won′t you strike me down or love me?

But your silence makes me cold
And the marrying you play is very touching
And I've hardly played the duke but I've been sucked in
And your silence shakes my bones
Your silence shakes my bones
Your silence makes me homesick for a place that I don′t know


Oh, and it′s only since I'm gone you think you own me
And it′s only since I met you I've been lonely
And it′s only in the hiding that you show me
The door before me is closed
And it's only since you left you say you love me
And it′s only since I'm gone you think I'm lovely
And it′s only in my nakedness you covered me
And it′s only when I jumped you say you shoved me
Outside to the bones
Outside to the bones
