Bones 

All i feel are bones 

All i see are bones 

I am a graveyard 

My face straight and tight 

Eyes that have seen death 

Ones that can’t go back 

I stretch out this hand 

 Like the grip of death  

If seeing is believing 

Then i must be dead

Dead Man walking 

Talking 

Sleeping 

But not eating 

To eat is to live 

And there is no room 

No space in the crypt 

As I touch the mirror 

I see a glimpse of what was 

Before bones 

An undug grave 

Full of life and light  

It shatters at the touch 

I see in the shards

In them  

Bones 

A body without return 

Bones 

Bones 

Bones
