I don't wanna be crippled and cracked
Shoulders wrists knees and back
Ground to dust and ash
Crawling on all fours
When you've got to feel that in your bones
When you've got to feel that in your bones
Now I can't climb the stairs
Pieces missing everywhere
Prozac painkillers
When you've got to feel that in your bones
When you've got to feel that in your bones
And I used to fly like Peter Pan
All the children flew when I touched their hands
They say you've got to feel that in your bones
They say you've got the feel that in your bones

Review about Bones Fall from Grace | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/31/09
Taking it somewhat literally, one might determine this song to be about simply getting old; about the wear on the body with age and how difficult simple tasks can become, like walking up the stairs.
On another level, however, it could also be about losing something - in particular something intangible like virtue, leadership or nobility - and feeling broken and pained by the loss, or by knowing that it was just allowed to slip away. The line "All the children flew when I touched their hands" could imply that the speaker once led people to goo things, but is no longer able to do that. Referencing that "you have to feel that in your bones" could simply mean that the pain of the loss is felt most (or entirely) internally.

I feel that he's kind of tired of living things intensely. He misses the time life meant more, but on the other hand he feels lazy when he thinks about the price it pays to live like that. He dopes himself with prozac to feel less, can see that theres pieces missing, but dont have the guts to find or look for those pieces. And the thing about peter pan might mean that he feels old. It kinda resumes the whole thing.

Okay, okay, I don't think it's arthritis. Maybe it's about a person who has been broken inside, depressed and crippled in the emotions and mind. They can't climb the stairs, meaning stairs for a good life and happiness or something.
If you value a good, accurate analysis, then don't go by what I just wrote...
