lyrics

Where once were rivers
Now there is only stone
The fossil shoals are showing us their bones

The trilobites lie beneath the earth
Cries from the distant past
The future just won't last
We're leaving this world en masse

You leave nothing
You take everything
You leave nothing
You take everything
Show your bones to me

When the desert turns to sea
When the seas shall cease to be
When the animals lie beneath the dirt

You leave nothing
You take everything
You leave nothing
You take everything
Show your bones to me

Once we built our castles made of sand
They stretched across this ruined poisoned land
Now there is only bitter dying sea
The earth has been washed of all humanity

Homeless we wander
Home is no longer
We'll wear your bones now

We'll wear your bones
And home is no longer home....

When the desert turns to sea
When the seas shall cease to be
When the animals lie beneath the dirt

When the desert turns to sea
When the seas shall cease to be
When the animals lie beneath the dirt
Show your bones to me

We will wear your bones (repeating)
And home is no longer home.

We will wear your bones.
