The Bones Lyrics

We're in the homestretch of the hard times
We took a hard left, but we're alright
Yeah, life sure can try to put love through it, but
We built this right, so nothing's ever gonna move it

When the bones are good, the rest don't matter
Yeah, the paint could peel, the glass could shatter
Let it rain 'cause you and I remain the same
When there ain't a crack in the foundation
Baby, I know any storm we're facing
Will blow right over while we stay put
The house don't fall when the bones are good

Call it dumb luck, but baby, you and I
Can't even mess it up, though we both try
No, it don't always go the way we planned it
But the wolves came and went and we're still standing

When the bones are good, the rest don't matter
Yeah, the paint could peel, the glass could shatter
Let it rain 'cause you and I remain the same
When there ain't a crack in the foundation
Baby, I know any storm we're facing
Will blow right over while we stay put
The house don't fall when the bones are good
When the bones are good

Bones are good, the rest, the rest don't matter (baby, it don't really matter)
Paint could peel, the glass could shatter (oh, the glass, oh, the glass could shatter)
Bones are good, the rest, the rest don't matter (ooh)
Paint could peel, the glass, the glass could shatter (yeah)

When the bones are good, the rest don't matter
Yeah, the paint could peel, the glass could shatter
Let it rain (let it rain, let it rain)
'Cause you and I remain the same (woo)
When there ain't a crack in the foundation (woo)
Baby, I know any storm we're facing
Will blow right over while we stay put
The house don't fall when the bones are good

Yeah, ooh

What is the Meaning of The Bones?

This composition explores the metaphor of a relationship being akin to a house. The 'bones' symbolize the foundational elements of trust, respect, and mutual understanding that hold a relationship together. Regardless of external pressures or challenges ('storms'), if these core elements are strong ('the bones are good'), the relationship will endure. The song emphasizes resilience in love and indicates that superficial issues ('the paint could peel, the glass could shatter') are insignificant compared to the strength of a solid foundation. It celebrates relationships that can withstand trials and remain unscathed, asserting that such bonds are not easily broken. #ResilienceInLove #StrongFoundations #EnduringRelationships
