Bone + Tissue Lyrics

Give me more than God in a courtroom
More than broken glass in my house shoes
More, more, more, more
The money on a bet that you wanna lose, babe
Quit taking your time making time feel better

Sell me something I can use to catapult my value
Treat me like the cardinal anointed in my vessels
And any time I bite the hand that feeds
Won't you lie through your teeth and
Tell me I'm a monument to more than bone and tissue?

Give me more than rocks in a windshield
More than kerosene in a minefield
More, more, more, more
Than strangers telling me what I want to hear
Instead of spending all your days making days feel shorter, just

Sell me something I can use to catapult my value
Treat me like the cardinal anointed in my vessels
And any time I bite the hand that feeds
Won't you lie through your teeth and
Tell me I'm a monument to more than bone and tissue?

If I falter on my oaths
Will it prove I'm more than skin and bones?
If I falter on my oaths
Will it prove I'm more than skin and bones?

Sell me something I can use to catapult my value
Treat me like the cardinal anointed in my vessels
And any time I bite the hand that feeds
Won't you lie through your teeth and
Tell me I'm a monument to more than bone and tissue?

What is the Meaning of Bone + Tissue?

In Gallant's poignant exploration of self-worth and existential validation, "Bone + Tissue" delves into the human yearning for significance beyond mere physical existence. The lyrics poetically challenge the superficial measures of value in society, such as wealth and external approval, urging a deeper recognition of intrinsic worth. The recurring plea to be seen as "a monument to more than bone and tissue" reflects a desperate desire for acknowledgment of one's profound spiritual and emotional dimensions. This struggle is encapsulated in the metaphorical imagery of being sold something to "catapult my value," suggesting a transactional view of personal esteem that Gallant critiques. Ultimately, the song is a resonant call for authenticity and meaningful affirmation in a world often dominated by materialistic values 🌍✨.
