These Kids Wear Crowns Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Woah woah we can feel our hearts beating woah oh oh we can let it out woah woah we can feel our hearts beating woah woah c'mon and let it out
Cuz were all just skeletons our bones will never break we know to take things slow we wont be home tonight no we wont be home tonight we got a place to go
Well keep our heads up and lay low to stay above the water with to drops we leaned over at least we got each other you remind me of bonnie you know that im your clyde don't need a rhyme of a reason dont need a place to hide
Cuz were all just skeletons our bones will never break we know to take things slow we wont be home tonight no we wont be home tonight we got a aplace to go
From the bottom of our hearts to the top of our lungs what we say is wat we mean and were tied at the tounge we play with guns cuz were not afraid to shoot our mouths off
[x2]
Were not afraid
Cuz were all just skeletons our bones will never break break break break
Cuz were all just skeletons our bones will never break we know to take things slow we wont be home tonight no we wont be home tonight we got a place to go
Goooooo [x4]
No we wont be home tonight we gotta place to go
The song "Skeletons" by These Kids Wear Crowns describes the thrill of living life to the fullest, taking risks and not caring about the consequences. The lyrics suggest that the singer and his/her friends have a good time by doing reckless things and living in the moment. The imagery of skeletons reflects the idea that they are free from the constraints of their physical bodies and can do whatever they want. The line "our bones will never break" represents the idea that they are unbreakable in spirit and unafraid of taking risks.
The chorus emphasizes the physical sensation of their hearts beating, a feeling that is shared by all humans, no matter their social status or background. This suggests that they are all equal and connected in some way. It is a call to action, an invitation to let loose and enjoy the moment. The repetition of the word "woah" amplifies the sense of excitement and momentum.
Throughout the song, there are references to teamwork and camaraderie. The singer acknowledges that they learn lessons the hard way but they do it together. The allusion to Bonnie and Clyde indicates that the singer considers themselves and their friends as partners in crime. Overall, the song celebrates the joy of living life to the fullest and taking risks with your closest friends.
