Bones world is as grisly as hell.    
It’s a hard fight for him
just to stay alive.  

That’s the way it’s been
from the beginning.  

That’s the way it will be
to the end,
and Bones knows that.  

Quite naturally,
he laughs it off.  

I mean,
what the hell else,
is Bones supposed to do.  

Bones has got to keep on.  

It’s a natural instinct that,
by the grace of God,
he was born with.  

Such instincts
are what keeps you alive,
even when you shouldn’t be.  

Bones is very much
a part of the world,
and intends to remain in it.

Bobby
