Bones Are Breaking lyrics
Song information
Artist: Poor Old Lu Album: Sin
Lyrics
This song has always been one of my favorites, for some reason. it wasn't a single. we didn't really play it in concert (just once, that I can remember). it rarely stuck out to people as a "strong" song off of the album, but I always liked it. I think the recording (with the preceeding *mess-up*) is very cool. I always dug the really large 'tom' drums at the beginning *and* the bridge remains one of my personal favorites!
Lyrically this song is pretty straight forward, I think. it talks about our usual difficulties, that is, being "worn out" and dealing with a new day ('is it daybreak'). the chorus wraps up the essence of the problem, "i can't hold this weight upon my shoulders anymore...". what this song does very differently is it wraps up the solution in the bridge... in (4) short lines... "so i.... give all.... to you.... my god". that's it. enough said
Is it daybreak? I'm sure And you're feeling weary There is so much, I know It's just got to end soon
Well, I can't hold this weight Upon my shoulders anymore My bones are breaking Hands are shaking With everything
Are you worn out? I'm sure Not happy nearly Too far in such to know You just have to break soon
Well, I can't hold this weight Upon my shoulders anymore My bones are breaking Hands are shaking With everything
So i Give all To you My god
Well, I can't hold this weight Upon my shoulders anymore My bones are breaking Hands are shaking With everything
Well, I can't hold this weight Upon my shoulders anymore My bones are breaking My bones are breaking My bones are breaking My bones are breaking
