lyrics

Just as pretty as you are sly
Your words are sharper than a rusty knife,
They’ll cut you like a blade
But words won’t keep you safe.

Oh, this life it keeps you on your toes
It wears your shoes down where you go.
You thought the world would forget
But you just ain’t been caught yet.

[Chorus]
Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones
They won’t save you from this woe
Or save your troubled soul
Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones
Burning hotter than the ground below
But you’re colder than a stone
More alone than alone
Oh, you’re on your own.

You say there’s things you’ve learnt to live without
But the more you live the more you start to doubt
And all the freedom in the world
Could no longer free you from this hell.

Stop this dreaded road that you tread on
Could surrender faster than a loaded gun
The comfort of your mothers’ arms
No, it can’t keep you safe from harm.

[Chorus x 2]
Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones
They won’t save you from this woe
Or save your troubled soul
Oh, Bones, Oh, Bones
Burning hotter than the ground below
But you’re colder than a stone
More alone than alone
Oh, you’re on your own.

Oh Bones, oh Bones
Oh Bones, oh bones

Americana style meets present day experience. Irresistibly nostalgic, her voice evokes an
old-time feel, while her lyrics are both charismatic and endearing. ... more
