Jeremy James - These Old Bones Lyrics




[ Featuring the Villaineers ]

Lately I'm feeling a little less young
It's not like I've left, it's not like I'm done
But this world keeps on spinning
In perfect time with the sun

Rain's gonna fall, clouds gotta roll
Whether or not they're mindful of the toll
I've got years on you now
I've got years of looking back on the done

Seasons that came, seasons that went
Years that passed
And all the money we spent
On the trappings of this life
Now dusty and thrown away

So gather your sticks
Gather your stones
Take your best shot
At these old bones
I've been through worse
I'm holding out for better days

They taught me to pray
To that hole in the sky
They taught me to reconcile
All the bold face lies
They said stick to your guns boy
And just be glad that you're free

I gave them an inch
But they only wanted more
I showed them my heart
They showed me the door
Oh brother, why can't you
Why can't you just let it be

'Cause life is short like my time with you
And I'll be damned if I don't see this through
I'm gonna reap what I sow
I'm gonna fall where I may

So gather your sticks
Gather your stones
Take your best shot
At these old bones
I've been through worse
It's starting to look like better days
