Old Bones
Renewing Love's Promise: Navigating Life with Old Bones
Lyrics
Why don't you tell me the truth
Expressing a desire for honesty and openness in communication.
Cause I'm getting sick of the moonlit conversations about anything but what's on our mind's now
Frustration with superficial conversations and a yearning for deeper connection.
Why don't I tell you the truth?
Raising the question of personal honesty and openness.
Cause I've been waking up with a memory of you pressed against my lips
Recalling intimate moments but also hinting at the challenge of moving on.
But I swore that I'd grow new skin
Repeated commitment to personal growth or change.
But I swore that I'd grow new skin
-But I swore that I'd grow new skin
-But how do I grow new skin with old bones
Expressing a dilemma of wanting personal growth but feeling hindered by one's past.
Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
Repetitive sounds, possibly emphasizing a struggle or frustration.
Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
-Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
-Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
-Why don't you take the time to understand my pathetic lies
Requesting understanding for the speaker's deceptions or false facade.
Like when I say "I'm fine"
Highlighting the speaker's tendency to say "I'm fine" when not truly okay.
Cause I swore that I'd grow new skin
Reiteration of the commitment to personal growth despite challenges.
Cause I swore that I'd grow new skin
-Cause I swore that I'd grow new skin
-But how do I grow new skin with old bones
Questioning the feasibility of personal growth with the limitations of the past.
Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
Continuation of repetitive sounds, possibly emphasizing inner turmoil.
Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
-Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
-Da dada da da dada da da dada da da
-I swore that I'd grow new skin
Repetition of the commitment to grow juxtaposed with the struggle of having old bones.
But I swore that I'd grow new skin
-But I swore that I'd grow new skin
-But how do I grow new skin with old
-But how do I grow new skin with old
-But how do I grow new skin with old bones
Persisting inquiry into the challenge of achieving personal growth with the constraints of the past.
