Stubborn Bones

Killer is asking for his gun back

His fake tears sold the tale

You shouldn't have to lose your life

Being another shade than pale

Angry man on the subway train

Spitting on immigrants

Don't want them in his land

But on the other hand

His people stole it from someone else

Hate's gonna drag us down

Bury us deep in the ground

And we may never see the light again

Tired, come sing along

Dance with me to a different drum

And we're gonna make it

Cause' we can change it

Rich man's asking for his soul back

The prayers he bought were counterfeit

The deal is done, no second chance

Washed in the precious blood of regret

Out of anguish

Back to the fray

Love is patient, love's concerned

Where do you stand, when others need a hand

Will your stubborn bones just let 'em burn

Hate's gonna drag us down

Bury us deep in the ground

And we may never see the light again

Tired, come sing along

Dance with me to a different drum

And we're gonna make it

Cause' we can change it
