"Bones" lyrics - AUGUST BURNS RED

We built this new resistance
To help keep our distance
Don't feel bad for us, we are content
In this new existence
We may never remember what it was like
Everything was better, then you arrived
You carved your scars, left everything
Fending to survive
We made a deal with the devil
Disguised as help
We made a deal with the devil
Should've trusted ourselves

You imposed your will
And we're left wondering why
You're not here to gain knowledge
We caught you in your lie
We aren't the kind to stand up
We aren't the kind to rebel (Rebel)
People can change, especially
When they've been through hell

[Chorus:]
It's in our bones (It's in our bones)
To be benevolent
It's in our souls (It's in our souls)
To be of service
It's in our bones (It's in our bones)
To be benevolent
It's in our souls
In our souls

We'll be nursed back to health
No longer a shell of our former selves
With our resolution, we'll find the infiltration
Now your deception will be annihilated

Tried to increase your reach
Now the levees are breached
You got swallowed up
By the people of the sea

[Chorus:]
It's in our bones (It's in our bones)
To be benevolent
It's in our souls (It's in our souls)
To be of service
It's in our bones (It's in our bones)
To be benevolent
It's in our souls (It's in our souls)

[Outro:]
Halfway is not somewhere
We will ever, ever meet
