about

“Father, we have to leave. All of us.”
The abbot shook his head, “None of us will leave this place, Frederico my son. ” He reached into his robe and pulled out a key of rings. He gave it to Frederico. “No one but you and John here. Praying didn't help, rattling bones for prophecies didn't help, and this old fool certainly didn't help by encouraging either..."

lyrics

All of these bones.
Can you tell me who they were.
And what of all of the skin.
I can't recall how it feels.
Take my insides apart.
Read the stars in my viscera.
All of the time.
I can't remember where it went.
And what of all that you told me.
I can't recall what I know.
Don the cloak I pretend I'm a believer.
But did I ever want to know?

Make my prophecy.
Show my fortune come.
Tell my future.
Tell me, Boneshaker.
Will tomorrow come?

All of the stars.
Can you tell me why they cry?
And do you know why we hide?
I can't recall how to fight.
Cut the innocent one.
Purity gives you all the clarity.
Why do we care?
Do you remember when we locked the door, said our hope is here.
Don the cloak, I pretend I'm a believer.

Make my prophecy.
Show my fortune come.
Tell my future.
Tell me, Boneshaker.
Break my prophecy.
Show my fortune come.
Tell my future.
Tell me, Boneshaker.
Will tomorrow come?

Give me my prophecy.
Tell me all you know.
Tell me my future.
Tell me, boneshaker.
Come tomorrow.
Make my prophecy.
Show my fortune come.
Tell my future.
Tell me, Boneshaker.
Will tomorrow come?
