Music Monday: Lonely Bones by The Honest Heart Collective

Music Monday is a meme that was created by Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek. Bjørn and I will pick a song alternatively on each Monday and share our thoughts about them. Timy’s pick this week is Lonely Bones by The Honest Heart Collective.

The funny thing is, Lonely Bones had been on my playlist for over 1,5 years now, and I only recently learned about The Honest Heart Collective. I honestly thought Lonely Bones was a Fivefold song because they have very similar sounds. Turns out, I was wrong. I’m not too mad about it, because I got to discover a new-to-me band and that’s always fun. Plus, their other songs are good too. But there is something about Lonely Bones that always gets to my core.

If I asked you, would you tell me that this was worth it?
Being lost here in a fragile state of mind
‘Cause I’m the fool because I thought that I deserved it
Well, I’ve got a feeling in these lonely bones of mine

I’m tired and broke in the same clothes from last night
And just because I’m in a brand new city, that don’t make it all right
(Get it together, boy get it together now)
I’ve spent two weeks in these jeans and white t-shirts
And the pain in my neck just gets worse and worse
But those are lessons you learn, lessons that you learn on your own

If I asked you, would you tell me that this was worth it?
Being lost here in a fragile state of mind
‘Cause I’m the fool because I thought that I deserved it
Well, I’ve got a feeling in these lonely bones of mine

It’s just another night out, but free won’t last forever
You pay for it every morning in the stormiest of weather
(Get it together, boys get it together now)
I know it’s hard to say no to those free things
And the wonders of the world that their love brings
But those are lessons you learn for reasons that you already know

If I asked you, would you tell me that this was worth it?
Being lost here in a fragile state of mind
‘Cause I’m the fool because I thought that I deserved it
Well, I’ve got a feeling in these lonely bones of mine, yeah!

If I asked you, would you tell me it wasn’t worth it?
Being lost here in a fragile state of mind
‘Cause I’m the fool because I never really earned
(I deserved it)
Well, I’ve got a feeling in these lonely bones of mine
Oh, god, I’ve been dealing with these lonely bones of mine
