To the Bone Lyrics
Once we've made sense of our world
We wanna go fuck up everybody else's
Because his or her truth doesn't match mine
But this is the problem
Truth is individual calculation
Which means because we all have different perspectives
There isn't one singular truth, is there?
Hold on, down and deeper down we're going
Way down through the floor
Oh, don't you wanna see what's at the core?
Truth is the icy clear stream we dream about drinking from
But it will liquidate liars should they rewire its smiling bomb
Hold on, down and down and down and down we're melting
down their throne
Down through every superstition, virgin, whore and crone
Hold on, down through all the fear gods to the very truth alone
Oh, down and down we're going to the bone
Truth is the permanent path we laugh about, but then avoid
Thinking we all know the way, we stray behind, self destroyed
Hold on, down and down and down and down, we're drilling
through their stone
Oh, down through every fairy story built to keep us prone
Hold on, down through every government with gun and
guided drone
Oh, down and down we're going to the bone
Rain on me, rain on me, to me, to me, to me
Rain all the truth down, down on me
Rain down so much you make a sea, you make a sea
A sea we can sail then sink like a stone
Down to the truth, down to the bone, down to the bone
We wanna go fuck up everybody else's
Because his or her truth doesn't match mine
But this is the problem
Truth is individual calculation
Which means because we all have different perspectives
There isn't one singular truth, is there?
Way down through the floor
Oh, don't you wanna see what's at the core?
But it will liquidate liars should they rewire its smiling bomb
down their throne
Down through every superstition, virgin, whore and crone
Hold on, down through all the fear gods to the very truth alone
Oh, down and down we're going to the bone
Thinking we all know the way, we stray behind, self destroyed
through their stone
Oh, down through every fairy story built to keep us prone
Hold on, down through every government with gun and
guided drone
Oh, down and down we're going to the bone
Rain down so much you make a sea, you make a sea
A sea we can sail then sink like a stone
Down to the truth, down to the bone, down to the bone

Very inaccurate lyrics but to be fair, the lyrics are very hard to hear correctly. Here are the lyrics straight from the To the Bone Deluxe Edition book.
Hold on, down and deeper down we're going Way down through the floor Oh, don't you wanna see what's at the core?
Truth is the icy clear stream we dream about drinking from But it will liquidate liars should they rewire its smiling bomb
Hold on, down and down and down and down we're melting down their throne Oh, down through every superstition, virgin, whore and crone Hold on, down through all the fear gods to the very truth alone Oh, down and down we're going to the bone
Truth is the permanent path we laugh about, but then avoid Thinking we all know the way, we stray behind, self destroyed
Hold on, down and down and down and down, we're drilling through their stone Oh, down through every fairy story built to keep us prone Hold on, down through every government with gun and guided drone Oh, down and down we're going to the bone
Rain on me, rain on me, to me, to me, to me
Rain all the truth down, down on me Rain down so much you make a sea, you make a sea A sea we can sail then sink like a stone Down to the truth, down to the bone, down to the bone
