Bag Of Bones Lyrics

[Verse]
This is how my tale begins, I was outside looking in again
Nothing like rain to wash you clean, so I slept in the cold and left unseen
I'd never seen a sky that pale at night, should have known it wasn't right
Wandered out there on my own, just a rattlin' bag of bones

[Pre-Chorus]
I can see you're doing just fine without me
What did you say when you left?
I believed you'd never get far without me
How wrong I was in the end
[Verse]
Thus, my tale of woe continues, it was me they got but it should have been you
You were the only one I trusted, but you left town and I got busted
Let me see you one last time, you can kiss my worthless ass goodbye
I doubt that it's been nice to know me, bon voyage, you'd best be going

[Pre-Chorus]
I agree, there's something not right about me
I thought the darkness would pass
I believed you'd never get far without me
Life is a joke if you laugh [Verse]
This is how my story ends, I'm stoned and broke and drunk again
No one laughs in nothing's face, I'm just floating on through my aimless days
Been a long road, but I'll be alright, I'm living on the countryside
I'll be out there on my own, just a rattlin' bag of bones

[Chorus]
I'll be out there on my own
Just a rattlin' bag of bones
I'll be out there on my own
Just a rattlin' bag of bones

[Bridge]
People die and planets turn and empires rise and fall and burn
Nothing lasts and no one stays, you just spiral off into outer space
Never seen a sky so full of stars, makes me wonder where you are
I'll be out here on my own, just a rattlin' bag of bones
[Chorus]
I'll be out there on my own
Just a rattlin' bag of bones
I'll be out there on my own
Just a rattlin' bag of bones
