Bones Of Man
Equador Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We travel alone, this is not the end.
Follow that road.
Follow that road.
All alone. '
Cause buried in the sand, the bones of man.
Everything you know, carry on in us.
Somewhere in my dreams is everything I lost.
Follow that road.
Follow that road.
You've gotta let it go.
All alone. '
Cause buried in the sand, the bones of man.
You've gotta let it go.
(Fly so high 'til I [?] my wings.)
All alone.
(Fell so far thought I might drown at sea.)
'Cause buried in the sand,
(Somewhere there's a place where we begin.) the bones of man.
(Meet you there 'cause it's a [?].)
The lyrics of Equador's song Bones of Man seem to reflect upon the ephemeral nature of human existence and the inevitability of death. The opening lines, "Are we just [?], until we start again? / We travel alone, this is not the end" suggest that we may be perpetually in a cycle of life and death, without truly understanding the meaning of our existence. However, the lyrics also offer a glimmer of hope, as they reassure us that our knowledge and experiences are carried on through those who come after us.
The chorus of the song, with its repeated lines of "Follow that road" and "You've gotta let it go" seem to suggest that we must let go of our physical existence and continue on our journey, wherever it might take us. The metaphor of the "bones of man" buried in the sand alludes to the idea that even our physical form will eventually be reduced to nothing and become part of the natural world.
Overall, the lyrics of Bones of Man offer a poignant and reflective commentary on the transient nature of life and the human condition. The song's gentle and atmospheric melody underscores the bittersweet tone of the lyrics and makes for a thought-provoking listen.

Are we just lost until we find our path again?
We travel alone, this is not the end.
We may journey alone, but this is not our final destination.
Follow that road.
Keep moving forward.

You must release your burdens.
All alone.
On this path, you may have to walk alone.
'Cause buried in the sand, the bones of man.
The remnants of our past lies buried in the earth.
Everything you know, carry on in us.
What we experience and learn lives on within us.
Somewhere in my dreams is everything I lost.
There is a place where I can reclaim all that I have lost.
You've gotta let it go. (Fly so high 'til I [?] my wings.) All alone. (Fell so far thought I might drown at sea.) 'Cause buried in the sand, (Somewhere there's a place where we begin.) the bones of man. (Meet you there 'cause it's a [?].)
