I am the bone man, That's what they call me, Can you touch the dead like me? My closets are full, With skeletons we dance, A candlelight trance for me, I collect my bounties under moonlight, No sight for sore eyes on the horizon, Guns in hand, Cold steel for the warm ones out tonight, I've done this for five years in my Ford Falcon, That's the only thing he left behind for me... I've had no other choice than running, My fear of self engulfs all things, I have no room to be afraid of any other, I am the bone man, That's what they call me, Can you touch the dead like me? My closets are full, With skeletons we dance, A candlelight trance for me, Maybe I'll dance five years more

Vicarious Fictions: Reclusion
I am the bone man, That's what they call me, Can you touch the dead like me? My closets are full, With skeletons we dance, A candlelight trance for me, I collect my bounties under moonlight, No sight for sore eyes on the horizon, Guns in hand, Cold steel for the warm ones out tonight, I've done this for five years in my Ford Falcon, That's the only thing he left behind for me... I've had no other choice than running, My fear of self engulfs all things, I have no room to be afraid of any other, I am the bone man, That's what they call me, Can you touch the dead like me? My closets are full, With skeletons we dance, A candlelight trance for me, Maybe I'll dance five years more
