Bones Lyrics

We built this new resistance
To help keep our distance
Don't feel bad for us
We are content in this new existence

We may never remember what is was like
Everything was better then you arrived
You carved your scars, and left everything fending to survive

We made a deal with the devil (Disguised as help)
We made a deal with the devil
We should have trusted ourselves

You imposed your will, and we're left wondering why
You're not here to gain knowledge
We caught you in your lie

We aren't the kind to stand up
We aren't the kind to rebel (Rebel)
People can change, especially when they've been through hell

It's in our bones to be benevolent
It's in our souls to be of service
It's in our bones to be benevolent
It's in our souls

We'll be nursed back to health
No longer a shell of our former selves
With our resolution we'll find the infiltration
Now your deception will be annihilated

You tried to increase your reach
But now the levees are breached
You got swallowed up by the people of the sea

It's in our bones to be benevolent
It's in our souls to be of service
It's in our bones to be benevolent
It's in our souls

Halfway is not somewhere we will ever, ever meet

Cover art for Bones lyrics by August Burns Red

I think this is about survival in the most desolate of instances. How as a human beings we can come back from the depths of despair and rebuild, even when all the odds are stacked highly against us.
