7/Very Old Bones
Lyrics and Music by Danny Paradise
I was born on Calvary Row
I never knew how much I didn’t know
‘Til I saw the face, yeah I saw the face behind the sun
And those billion, billion things she could become
All my theories, all my theories, they’ve been shattered
And these very old bones seem to hardly matter
Yet I know they have their place, these very old bones,
These very old bones are the human race, these very old bones
Hey, hey have you heard…
Of the merciful Princess Bodhisattva Girl?
She who looks down upon, she looks down upon
The sufferings of this world
And she may never be free now until all, all are free now
These very old bones are the human race uh huh
And every old bone has its numbered place uh huh
Ten thousand angels walk this very garden
Spiraling darkness has no hold on me
These vaults of treasures surely open
When our eyes learn to truly see
So just beyond where our eyes can see
We’re bound to penetrate these mysteries
I swear I saw,
I saw the face behind the sun
And those billion, billion things she had just done
These very old bones, oh they lay there shattered
And these very ancient dreams have their patterns
Yet I know they have their place, these very old bones
These very old are the human race, these very old bones
Yet I know they have their place, these very old bones
Every old bone is the human race, these very old bones…
