Rook - Bones Lyrics

Dinosaur bones in a backyard in Arkansas
Five smooth stones in a river that no one saw
Teenagers kiss on an old covered bridge
And I wonder where my brother is
Find shark teeth on beach down in Florida
A student abroad whistles "sic transit gloria"
A tree all alone, and no trail that leads out that far
And I wonder where my brothers are
It's hard to quantify shooting stars without eyes
Summer wind without skin, trees falling with no alibi
All the tiny little moments that will go unseen
By all the shiny flickin' eyes just gettin' lost in a dream
At what cost have we lost something
That we would never have seen
It's hard to quantify shooting stars without eyes
Summer wind without skin, trees falling with no alibi
All the tiny little moments that will go unseen
By all the shiny flickin' eyes just gettin' lost in a dream
At what cost have we lost something
That we would never have seen
At what cost have we lost something
That we would never have seen
I wonder at the wonders that the world will never see
Because we're sleeping, and they're buried, and we hardly try it seems
Maybe someday it won't all be as abstract as my dream
And I wonder if my brothers saw them somewhere without me
What do we know? We haven't dug up all the bones
What do we know? We haven't dug up all the bones
What do we know? We haven't dug up all the bones
What do we know? We haven't dug up all the bones
An arrow finds its mark with just the archer to bare witness
Some distant star explodes that no one even knew existed
All the private smiles from all the secret victories
And I wonder what my brothers have seen
