At the end of each day
You release a great sigh
From the pain of misfortune,
But the bones never lie.

You wonder, “What happened?”
You ask yourself, “Why?”
“What did I do wrong?”
But the bones never lie.

You feel all alone,
And your hope has run dry,
As anger and sorrow take over,
But the bones never lie.

But this is not your fault!
And the time draws nigh
When you must let go, move along,
And let the broken bones lie.
