Lyrics
Skin & Bones
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lay your body down
Lay the old dress down
Weary hands and feet
Time's mistreated you, you say
You're just skin and bones
These days
These days
Digging yourself an early grave
Lying in the mud all day
I couldnt beleive that was you
At the end of the road '
You were see through
Chorus:
You can grow as high as the willow grows
Turn your roots from the soil to the sea
The ocean floor it holds the darkest parts of you
It's time that you let yourself breathe
Can you forget about the past
Is that what it meants to be free
I know now that these wounds wont last
Some people they're just not worth the grief
