"Soul And Bones" lyrics
"Soul And Bones"
Oh, they hiss and they snarl
This pack of dogs from where I came
They followed me from the West, out to the East
And then back again
And my scars hide well but they shine on my pain
And I'm begging God now, don't let me make the same mistake
Why is the only thing that can save a man
Found in the dark on his way down?
And how do I let go of this heavy load
Deep as my soul and bones?
Church bells in the distance; a haunting harmony
No, I did not ask you for this, and still I'm left here on my knees
All these voices in the fog are catching up with me
I fought them one by one, now there coming on in teams of 3
Why is the only thing that can save a man
Found in the dark on his way down?
And how do I let go of this heavy load
Deep as my soul and bones?

Mandolin Orange - "House Of Stone" It's a churchyard auction
A sight to see
Where the eyes are big
And the odds are lean
The pockets all are empty
