Lyrics:
Fossils
Written by Marlon Chaplin
I’ve got one hand in my pocket,
While the other’s roaming free,
I’m not here to preach or knock it,
It’s just always worked for me,
So you’ve moved on to the next one,
I guess it’s better him that me,
I can’t pretend I understand you,
Can’t pretend I let you breath,
Oh,
Feel like a bone in the dirt,
Oh,
Pick it up,
Put it back for a while,
Oh,
Just like an arrow you found,
Oh,
Pick it up,
Put it back for a while,
Your wall of memories on clothes line,
Hangs in shadows and recedes,
Fossils buried in the flatlands,
Who’s next to dig it up for me?
Oh,
Feel like a bone in the dirt,
Oh,
Pick it up,
Put it back for a while,
Birds on wire speaking softly,
In a language even I can read,
But there ain’t no creature comforts,
Nothing lulling me to sleep,
Oh,
Just like an arrow you found,
Oh,
Pick it up,
Put it back for a while.
