The Bones of Us Lyrics

By Switchfoot

Lyrics

We met the bones of us in our old backyard 

And I dug 'em all up with nothing but an old guitar 

And the past starts talking with younger souls 

About the dreams that we started off with 

Before we both let go 


And it’s time to figure out 

Time to figure out 

Time to figure out 

This war 


Time to figure out 

Time to figure out 

Figure out who I’m fighting for 


Into the unknown 

Let’s follow this through 

I’m fighting for us 

But most of all for you 


Our hearts like a flood 

That washes us new 

I’m fighting for us 

But most of all for you 


Most of all for you 


And the clock moves forward 

We let our love get sore 

It was one of those arguments 

Can’t remember what the fight was for 

I heard the front door slam and 

After the aftermath 

I saw you smiling back at me 

From a box of photographs 


And it’s time to figure out 

Time to figure out 

Time to figure out 

This war 


Time to figure out 

Time to figure out 

Figure out what I’m fighting for 


Into the unknown 

Let’s follow this through 

I’m fighting for us 

But most of all for you
