Bones Lyrics
(Come with me)
We took a back road, we’re gonna look at the stars We took a back road in my car Down to the ocean, it’s only water and sand And in the ocean, we’ll hold hands But I don’t really like you Apologetically dressed and in the best put on a heartbeat line Without an answer, the thunder speaks for the sky And on the cold, wet dirt I cry And on the cold, wet dirt I cry Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones? It’s only natural The cinematic vision ensued Like the holiest dream There’s someone calling, an angel whispers my name But the message relayed is the same (wait till tomorrow you'll be fine) but its gone to the dogs in my mind i always hear them when the dead of night Comes calling to save me from this fight but they can never wrong this right Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones? It’s only natural Don’t you wanna swim with me? Don’t you wanna feel my skin on your skin? It’s only natural I never had a lover I never had soul And I never had a good time I never got bold Don’t you wanna come with me? Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones? It’s only natural Don’t you wanna swim with me? Don’t you wanna feel my skin on your skin? It’s only natural Don't you wanna come with me? Don't you wanna feel my bones on your bones? its only natural Come and take a swim with me Don't you wanna feel my skin on your skin? its only natural

I think this song is just that he wants to get laid, hence he doesn't really like her.

I don't think I'd be overanalyzing it to say that it's also about the absurdity of life. We can assume that the girl he's looking at the stars and holding hands with in the first verse is his girlfriend. But in the chorus, instead of talking about their sex having some sort of loving element, all he mentions is their bones. They're just bodies engaging in meaningless fucking, like in the sense of A Handmaid's Tale. He even mentions that he doesn't really like her.
"There’s someone calling, an angel whispers my name
But the message relayed is the same
(wait till tomorrow you'll be fine)"
The angel whispering his name is an attempt at finding something more than just futile materialism, but he just waits until tomorrow, just letting his life slip away day by day.
Then a bit later:
Don’t you wanna swim with me?
Don’t you wanna feel my skin on your skin?
It’s only natural
Feeling a bit less depressed for some reason, he begins talking about the whole person, shown by the inclusion of skin.
I never had a lover
I never had a soul
Again, despite obviously having a girlfriend, he never had a "lover." I think this reconfirms that they go out and fuck, but they still don't have a true intimacy. The most important line for my argument is "never had a soul," because that's what the whole thing's about.
As he begins remembering all the shit that's happened to him (And I never had a good time/I never got bold) he goes back to just thinking about bones. Then he starts going back and forth into a duality of man-type thing.

The song is simply sexy and there is nothing else to it! Like killing_spree said, he really doesn't like the girl (But I don’t really like you) and he just is with her to get some action.
He knows it's morally/religiously wrong to manipulate her like that. (There’s someone calling, an angel whispers my name).
But yet, he taunts her and does anything to lure her into having sex with him. (Don’t you wanna come with me?/Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones?/It’s only natural.)
Typical male ;) I can't wait to hear the album version!

"Apologetic and dressed in the best ---
Without an answer, the finest piece from the sky" is more like
"apologetically dressed in the best
put on a heartbeat (??)
without an answer
the thunder speaks from the sky"
"They say not physically" is more likely something like ""This enigmatic vision exudes"
"But the message remains the same" is actually "The message RELAYED is the same."
The "---?" parts are actually something along the lines as follows:
"(wait until tomorrow you'll be fine)
but its gone to the dogs in my mind/
i always hear them when the dead of night/
comes calling to save me from this fight/
but they can never wrong this right"
Can the lyrics here be fixed? Thanks.

I'll agree with everyone else here, he just wants to get some. It's a very sexy song, the lyrics remind me of On Top from Hot Fuss, but he sounds quite a bit more desperate in this one.

(Come with me)
We took a back road, we’re gonna look at the stars
We took a back road in my car
Down to the ocean, it’s only water and sand
And in the ocean, we’ll hold hands
But I don’t really like you
Apologetically dressed and the best foot on a heartbeat.....
Without an answer, the thunder speaks for the sky
And on the cold, wet dirt I cry
And on the cold, wet dirt I cry
Don’t you wanna come with me?
Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones?
It’s only natural
The cinematic vision interlude (?)
Like the holiest dream
There’s someone calling, an angel whispers my name
But the message relayed is the same
(wait till tomorrow you'll be fine)
but its gone to the dogs in my mind
i always hear them in the dead of night
....calling to save me from this.....
but they can never wrong this ride
Don’t you wanna come with me?
Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones?
It’s only natural
Don’t you wanna swim with me?
Don’t you wanna feel my skin on your skin?
It’s only natural
I never had a lover
I never had soul
And I never had a good time
I never got bold
Don’t you wanna come with me?
Don’t you wanna feel my bones on your bones?
It’s only natural
Don’t you wanna swim with me?
Don’t you wanna feel my skin on your skin?
It’s only natural
Don't you wanna come with me?
Don't you wanna feel my bones on your bones?
its only natural
Come and take a swim with me
Don't you wanna feel my skin on your skin?
its only natural

By repeating the chorus so much. It made those lyrics cheesy and unitentionally hilarious. Accompany that with the cheesy synth horns. Aww man, what were they thinking.
