Bone, bone
Reflection on the concept of bones.
Bone, bone
Repetition emphasizing the focus on bones.
Hands and toes, feet and head
Listing body parts (hands, toes, feet, head).
Carrion to be fed
Reference to carrion, suggesting decay or death.
Any dog can chew over my bone
Metaphorically inviting scrutiny or criticism.
And all my wine's gonna turn to blood
Symbolic transformation, possibly alluding to sacrifice.
When my name is called
Awaiting a significant event or destiny.
I'm just a pile of bone
Reduced to mere bones, highlighting mortality.
But when I'm gone
Contemplating existence after death.
And I'm dead
Acknowledging mortality.
What will be inside me head?
Questioning the nature of afterlife or legacy.
Bone, bone

Bone, bone

Fingernail, chest and feet
Enumerating body parts again.
Carrion good to eat
Reiteration of carrion, suggesting a cyclic nature.
Any dog can chew over my bone
Inviting others to examine or critique.
And all my wine's gonna turn to blood
Anticipation of a transformative event.
When my gun is shot
Reference to a powerful or fatal action.
I'm just a pile of bone
Emphasizing the eventual reduction to bones.
But when I'm gone
Reflection on one's state after death.
And I'm dead
Acknowledging the inevitable nature of death.
What will be inside my head?
Questioning the contents of the mind after death.
Will all my stitches be un-sewn?
Contemplating the permanence of one's actions.
If heaven is a place I know
Pondering the nature of heaven and its impact.
I won't be taking my bones
Rejecting the idea of taking one's bones to heaven.

Will all my stitches be un-sewn?
Reflecting on the possibility of undoing past actions.
And when I'm gone
Reiteration of mortality.
And I'm dead
Acknowledging the inevitability of death.
What will be inside my head?
