Modern Bones Lyrics by Lune (AUS)

Ghost

2020

You're in a mortal shell

Tell me you're living your life

We are just skeletons living in organic clothes
Living on our knees already living in the grave
Brave the arid concrete landscape
Tell me was it worth it to feel this way

Suppressing yourself just to make ends meet
Your only motive is the end of the week
Instead of seeing every moment as a chance
To be alive and free

Wave your dreams goodbye
, just to fund your shitty life
It's a means just to survive
And the worst part is
I'm exactly the same

We live like we're immortal
We live like we've got nothing to lose
We live like we're immortal
We live like we're immortal
The armour of youth could not stop the arrows of time
In the end we all stare death in the face
We live like we're immortal
We live like we're immortal

At least I've got my youth

But in my head I'm getting older
I find it hard to see how anything matters
I feel I've lost it all
I had it all and I threw it away

Does this please you?
I abandoned my dreams just to live in their shadow
Watch me decay
Watch me obey
I never mattered anyway (Did it make you safe?)

Did it make you feel safe
While your dreams faded away
Did it make you feel safe?
Will it make you safe
When you stare death in the face?

We live like we're immortal
We live like we've got nothing to lose
We live like we're immortal
We live like we're immortal
The armour of youth could not stop the arrows of time
In the end we all stare death in the face
We live like we're immortal
We live like we're immortal

I've wasted so much time
I'm the only one to blame for the time that I waste
(Forgive yourself)
I never will
How could I forgive myself for all the wasted time and potential?
(You're still so young)
I'm so sick of being burned
 so I'll stay in bed and sleep
Getting up to make ends meet
I'll pretend I exist at the very least

Did it make you feel safe
While your dreams faded away
Did it make you feel safe?
We're just modern bones
