    Bones is the Title track on from the first Demo made over a decade ago. Rerecorded with today’s technology, it stands on its own as an example of how Hardcore music is timeless.

    Story Behind the Song
    At the impressionable age of 11 a trip to Austria introduced Ossuary’s founding member and lead vocalist to his European roots. At that time he had no idea how much this adventure would foreshadow his future. This trip included a visit to a turn of the century Ossuary. (A depository for the Bones of the Dead) Located in the basement of an Austrian cathedral was this grim and uniquely European sarcophagus. Upon his constant insistence a few shillings were offered and a tour into the bowels of the Ossuary was underway. Never again was this boy the same…
    Flash to 1985… There was very little debate as to what the fledgling Hardcore band was to have as a moniker. Ossuary was born, and the track you hear now is one of the first songs ever written by Ossuary!

    Lyrics
    Bones
    © Ossuary 1985

    Bones lie scattered on the ground;
    rotting corpses all around;
    all you hear is a deadly sound;
    death will come and you¹ll be found.

    OSSUARY, OSSUARY!

    He sees you, run!, he¹s coming from behind,
    your entire life goes rushing through your mind,
    your running forever down that long stairway,
    OSSUARY, OSSUARY!

    You stop, give up, you cant run no more;
    He grabs you, NO!, and throws you on the floor;
    He doesn¹t care what you have to say!
    OSSUARY, OSSUARY!

    He has you, Death, in the palm of his hand,
    He is the one that rules all the land;
    you stop, Scream!, for the light of day.
    OSSUARY, OSSUARY!

    OSSUARY, OSSUARY!

    He locks the door the way you came in
    He shouts with a smile to all of his men
    He turns with a grin and swallows the key
    your trapped forever in the Ossuary.
