"The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley; it was full of bones.
And he led me round among them; and behold, there were very many upon the valley; and lo, they were very dry.
And he said to me, 'Son of man, can these bones live?' And I answered, 'O Lord GOD, thou knowest.'
Again he said to me, 'Prophesy to these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live.
And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the LORD.'
...
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet, an exceedingly great host.
Then he said to me, 'Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. Behold, they say, 'Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off.'
Therefore prophesy, and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: Behold, I will open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people; and I will bring you home into the land of Israel.
And you shall know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves, and raise you from your graves, O my people.
And I will put my Spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land; then you shall know that I, the LORD, have spoken, and I have done it, says the LORD.' "
-Ezekiel 37:1-6,10-14
lyrics
Whisper's floating to my ears
All of the time
In our mind
The easy road finds the answer
We're not happy, we're not sad
Just misunderstood
Nothing we seem to gain
Makes us feel whole
We are out
Asking all these people simple questions
Turn around
Hope that the wind wont catch me
Sleeping soundly
Or running around with my eyes shut
But it's easier to make my own rules
Changing seasons, the age of reason
Has dried up the bones
What do they know?
Fire and stone, oh no
So it goes
