Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth - Stones of Silence Lyrics

Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth Lyrics

"Stones of Silence"

Never somebody needing me
Never someone calling my name
I wish answers poured endlessly like water
From my elbow to my hand

I can provide for all your needs
My heart an open manger
My room is white from clear thinking
Tears have wiped all the dirty stains

Bitter winds
Find us
Blow us apart
Stones of silence
Blind us
Desire is a hunger
That murders the heart

I'm pale there's black between my teeth
I danced all night to come back here
My brain is empty
I gave it all for nothing
My contribution walks away

Bitter winds
Find us
Blow us apart
Stones of silence
Blind us
Desire is a hunger
That murders the heart

Now in front of the TV set
I see grey suited men
Stuffing death in their wallets
Stuffing death in their wallets

Bitter winds
Find us
Blow us apart
Stones of silence
Blind us
Desire is a hunger
That murders the heart
