Weary Bones Songtext
von Rusted Root

These weary bones
They walk the earth
Thinking of you
As I unfold my pain
These cathedrals were built
To drop daggers from the bell tower
Rendering arms immobile
But now the child′s caress

It's strange
What they′ve done to you
Arranged
Every party to fit their game
I really think it's insane


Tonight I'm hanging with the clowns
Playing trombone
Down by the riverside
That′s where we burn our fire
Away from the slaughter
Away from the sacred slaughter
Everyone′s at ease
Yeah everyone's at ease

It′s strange
What they've done to you
Arranged
Every party to fit their game
I really think it′s insane

And all along these weary bones
They're thinking of you
They′re thinking of you
I think of you
And I'm not alone
I'm just wiping my heels
Clean


These weary bones
They walk the earth
Thinking of you
As I unfold my pain
These cathedrals were built
Dropping daggers from the bell tower
Rendering arms immobile
But now the child′s caress

It′s strange
What they've done to you
Arranged
Every party to fit their game
I really think it′s insane
