Dead Mens Bones
Sometimes, dead mens bones rise up to speak
Rattling the halls of justice
and urgently pointing to the pages of time
and history
Forever reaching out, needing his or her story to be told
In the night when questions go unanswered
and historys truths need to be told
Some life stories go unclaimed, and unproclaimed
Until a time that one picks up the torch of time
and once again, dead men''s bones speak
Rattling the halls of justice
and urgently pointing to the pages of time
and history
Forever reaching out, needing his or her story to be told
In the night when questions go unanswered
and historys truths need to be told
Some life stories go unclaimed, and unproclaimed
Until a time that one picks up the torch of time
and once again, dead men''s bones speak
