See These Bones

Everyone's right And no one is sorry That's the start and the end of the story From the sharks and the jets To the call in the morning Everyone's right And no one is sorry That's the start and the end of the story From the sharks and the jets To the call in the morning And life is just bets anyway Look alive See these bones What you are now we were once Try it as they the might No one is immune to Misfiring and acting on the wrong clues And thinking this time to re-do, re-do I feel rain in the movies And the talk before the screen lights I hear strings in the park I don't like to call or write Except when it's too late at night And mostly just think in the dark Look alive See these bones What you are now we were once Just like we are You will be dust Just like we are Permanent You look too tired to eat To hungry too sleep Just imagine the speed It's just what you need Look alive And see these bones What you are now We were once And just like we are You'll be dust Just like we are Permanent The lights in the city Are more or less blinking This side of the story Decides what you are thinking Warm arms and cold faces We're squinting, we're hurrying We take inventory We're digging, we're burying Do you remember when the light was low? Do you remember it fell? Do you remember when we went through her house? Remember ringing the bell? Look alive See these bones What you are now We were once Just like we are You'll be dust Just like we are Permanent The lights in the city Are more or less blinking This side of the story Decides what you are thinking Warm arms and cold faces We're squinting, we're hurrying We take inventory We're digging, we're burying Do you remember when the light was low? Do you remember it fell? Do you remember when we went through her house? Remember ringing the bell? Do you remember when the light was low? Do you remember it fell? Do you remember when we went through her house? Remember ringing the bell? Look alive See these bones Look alive See these bones
