Bones of Man
by Bright Eyes
It was a beautiful night, yeah
the moon was climbing out of the mountains,
And from the city in the ground came the sound of a million lights.
We were headed to the center of our brain when they came a'knocking.
They said, we've seen you before, and we really like all of your stories.

This world of wonder..
We'll (eat) the bones of man,
we never wanted to leave you. (x2)

When it touched my hand I felt my mind open up like a valley,
And from a crack in the ground came the sound of a million legs.
There was a silent flash before the Earth started closing up on itself.
I felt at peace and alive even though the ship was goin' down.
