I’m only bones
You ask me to be me
But me isn’t what you want to see
You see him, her, and him
But if you look into my eyes
Surprise!
There’s no disguise
I’m only bones.
It doesn’t matter what you say
I’m unique in my own little way
Maybe you’ll accept me soon
But today!
I’m only bones.
My life is like a child playing chess
Every turn I move a pawn
And the board becomes a bigger mess
As you knock me down
One by one by one
But yet I don’t throw down my king
I slowly turn this game around
Like a puppet with no string
I have my own voice
I make my own sound
But I’m still only bones.
In a maze of bent mirrors
Where my sight isn’t clear
These mirrors confuse me
I know who I am
And I know where I stand
But I’m…only bones
I try to ease this pain
And I try so hard to please you…
In vain
What do you expect
When will you except…
Me for me
Someday I hope you will let me call this place home
Because every day you don’t
I lose another
BONE.
