Poor Old Lu Lyrics
Bones are Breaking

This song has always been one of my
favorites, for some reason. It wasn't a
single. We didn't really play it in concert
(just once, that I can remember). It rarely
stuck out to people as a "strong"
song off of the album, but I always liked
it. I think the recording (with the
preceeding *mess-up*) is very cool. I always
dug the really large 'tom' drums at the
beginning *AND* the bridge remains one of my
personal favorites!

Lyrically this song is pretty straight
forward, I think. It talks about our usual
difficulties, that is, being "worn
out" and dealing with a new day ('is it
daybreak'). The chorus wraps up the essence
of the problem, "i can't hold this
weight upon my shoulders anymore...".
What this song does very differently is it
wraps up the solution in the bridge... in (4)
short lines... "so I.... give all.... to
You.... my God". That's it. Enough said.

is it daybreak? i'm sure
and you're feeling weary
there is so much, i know
it's just got to end soon

well, i can't hold this weight
upon my shoulders anymore
my bones are breaking
hands are shaking
with everything

are you worn out? i'm sure
not happy nearly
too far in such to know
you just have to break soon

well, i can't hold this weight
upon my shoulders anymore
my bones are breaking
hands are shaking
with everything

so i
give all
to you
my God

well, i can't hold this weight
upon my shoulders anymore
my bones are breaking
hands are shaking
with everything

well, i can't hold this weight
upon my shoulders anymore
my bones are breaking
my bones are breaking
my bones are breaking
my bones are breaking
