Lyrics
Bag Of 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.
Double noose a necklace
Bubble wrap to safe the place
Wrinkles of a trophy one
Could think of it as showing us the way
Think of it as showing us the way
Keep it all from sympathy
Your day today your dignity
Bring the other brothers round
We'll think of it as showing us the way
We'll think of it as showing us the way
Bag of bones
Beautiful old bag of bones
So much more besides
Silent when you're so or silent
Nothing more to say
Could think of it as showing us the way
Could think of it as showing us the way
Bag of bones
Beautiful old bag of bones
So much more besides
Bag of bones
Beautiful old bag of bones
So much more besides
Bag of bones
Beautiful old bag of bones
So much more besides
