Bones

“Bones” is the first single off “Mercury – Act 2”, released on March 11th, 2022. A spirited examination of life and death, the song explodes with an infectious chorus that celebrates the intangible spark that ignites our beings. “‘Bones’ is a reflection of my constant obsession with the finality and fragility of life,” says Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds. “I’m always in search of some evidence that will convince me that there is more to come – that life is truly eternal in some sense. Having yet to find that, I try to at least dream of what conquering death would feel like in a song.”

[Verse 1] Gimme, gimme, gimme some time to think I'm in the bathroom, looking at me Face in the mirror is all I need (Ooh-ooh) Wait until the reaper takes my life Never gonna get me out alive I will live a thousand million lives (Ooh-ooh) [Pre-Chorus] My patience is waning, is this entertaining? Our patience is waning, is this entertaining? [Chorus] I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know Where I'm losing all control 'Cause there's magic in my bones I-I-I got this feeling in my soul Go ahead and throw your stones 'Cause there's magic in my bones [Verse 2] Playin' with a stick of dynamitе There was nevеr gray in black and white There was never wrong 'til there was right (Ooh-ooh) Feelin' like a boulder hurtlin' Seein' all the vultures circlin' Burnin' in the flames, I'm workin' in Turnin' in a bed, that's darkenin' [Pre-Chorus] My patience is waning, is this entertaining? Our patience is waning, is this entertaining? [Chorus] I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know Where I'm losing all control 'Cause there's magic in my bones (In my bones) I-I-I got this feeling in my soul Go ahead and throw your stones 'Cause there's magic in my bones [Post-Chorus] 'Cause there's magic in my bones [Bridge] Look in the mirror of my mind Turnin' the pages of my life Walkin' the path so many paced a million times Drown out the voices in the air Leavin' the ones that never cared Pickin' the pieces up and buildin' to the sky [Pre-Chorus] My patience is waning, is this entertaining? My patience is waning, is this entertaining? [Chorus] I-I-I got this feeling, yeah, you know Where I'm losing all control 'Cause there's magic in my bones (Magic in my bones) I-I-I got this feeling in my soul (Soul) Go ahead and throw your stones 'Cause there's magic in my bones [Outro] There goes my mind, (I-I-I) don't mind There goes my mind (There it goes, there it goes) There goes my mind, (I-I-I) don't mind There goes my mind (There it goes) 'Cause there's magic in my bones
