Pick Up The Bones
(Brutal Planet)
Collecting pieces of my family in an old pillow case
This one has a skull but it don´t have a face
These look like the arms of my father so strong
And the ring on this finger means my grandmother´s gone
Here´s some legs in a pile where my sister once played
Here´s som mud made of blood
And these teeth are decayed
The ear of my brother
The hand of a friend
And I just can´t put ´em back together again
Pick up the bones and set them on fire
Follow the smoke going higher and higher
Pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
Pray ´em a prayer and turn out the light
There are stains on the floor where the kitchen once stood
There are ribs in the fireplace mixed with the wood
There are forces in the air
Ghosts in the wind
Bullets in the back and some scares on the skin
There were demons with guns who marced thru this place
Killing everything that breathed they´re an inhuman race
There are holes in the walls
Bloody hair on the brick
And the smell of this hell is making me sick
Pick up the bones and set them on fire
Follow the smoke going higher and higher
Pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
Pray ´em a prayer and turn out the light
Pick up the bones and set them on fire
Follow the smoke going higher and higher
Pick up the bones and wish them goodnight
Pray ´em a prayer and turn out the light
Now maybe someday the sun´s gonna shine
Flowers will bloom and all will be fine
But nothin´ will grow on this burnt cursed ground
Cuz the breath of the death is the only sound
