Bare bones
Out in the open
Guns out
Thoughts shut off
Past and future like dust
Every word ever said like raindrops in a drought
Washed out

I'll never know the state that you're in
I cannot climb into your skin

So bare your bones
Out in the open
Guns out
Thoughts shut off
Past and future like dust
With every word ever said like raindrops in a drought
Washed out---

I'll eat away your sadness
And every common mistake made by man
I'll fight relentless battles without a stone in hand

I'll block away the images, scare away the ghost
Every night you may sleep in peace
Within you shall remain a hope

I'll grow my hair long enough
You'll never feel cold again
And when you tire
In my labor find a resting place

When no ones home
When both moon and sun refuse display
And vacant signs array
Even then, you'll never be alone---

Without name
Without identity
Without renown or any fame

I'll bare my bones
Out in the open
Rise and fall a hundred times

'Cause I want to know you
I want to show you
Console you til you understand...
