Bones

You dream in color while the world is black and white
You chase your demons almost every night
And you've got your reasons but it doesn't make it right
We're a long way from being alright

Tell me a story where the hero saves the day
Leave out the sad parts and how the villain gets away
Make me believe if only for today
Cause I'm a long way from being OK

Waiting on the line
For something that can bring me back to life

This empty feeling has got me searching for the meaning
But some things are better left alone
Can my heart bend before it breaks, if I can't learn from my mistakes
I'm only skin and bones

Let's pour ourselves into the good times and the laughs
We'll find the answers at the bottom of the glass
Let's make a toast to the moment while it lasts
Cause we're a long way from the voices of the past

Tell me a story where the hero saves the day
Leave out the sad parts and how the villain gets away
Make me believe that even sinners can be saved
Cause we're a long way from being OK

Waiting on the line
For something that can bring me back to life

This empty feeling has got me searching for the meaning
But some things are better left alone
Can my heart bend before it breaks, if I can't learn from my mistakes
I'm only skin and bones
