Lyrics Skeleton – Paravi
My skeleton’s hand-me-down
My bones have been lost and found
I’m hearing a sacred sound
Calling out my name
I’m covered in fingerprints
Kisses of melanin
Blessing my skin with the evidence
That I am made of you
I am made of you
My skeleton’s hand-me-down
My bones have been lost and found
I’m hearing a sacred sound
Calling out my name
My skeleton’s hand-me-down
My bones have been lost and found
I’m hearing a sacred sound
Calling out my name
Oh my name
My name
My name
I’m swimming in galaxies
Remembering how to breathe
Tracing the steps that came before me
And all your stories
‘Cause I am made of you
I am made of you
My skeleton’s hand-me-down
My bones have been lost and found
I’m hearing a sacred sound
Calling out my name
My skeleton’s hand-me-down
My bones have been lost and found
I’m hearing a sacred sound
Calling out my name
Oh my name
Comes with ghosts
Old faces I trust the most
I’m following the echoes
Calling out my name
Oh my name
My name
My name
Make a bed of marigolds
And bury me inside of those
My skeleton is not alone
‘Cause I am more than flesh and bone, so…
