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 (and 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 that 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 (and 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 (and 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
