| [00:16.298] |
We wed behind the old house, offered our skin |
| [00:24.744] |
Removed it from our branches, and let it be the curtains |
| [00:32.257] |
And I asked him where he put the bones; |
| [00:40.011] |
And I asked her where she put the bones: |
| [00:47.968] |
They fed them to the horses |
| [00:55.184] |
|
| [01:00.694] |
We shivered and kissed our linen loud |
| [01:08.376] |
And held the holy spirit in our mouths |
| [01:16.224] |
And my beard did break when it found his face; |
| [01:24.502] |
And my beard did break when it found her face |
| [01:31.847] |
|
| [01:32.005] |
But there's still one light in one house, far in fields from the city |
| [01:41.099] |
One light is a forest fire left running in the pantry |
| [01:49.186] |
One light is a campfire in the living room for reptiles |
| [01:56.872] |
Who promise they'll make new skin between the wars, at nightfall |
| [02:05.203] |
|
| [02:05.364] |
Wild dogs, can I confess I never wanted this marriage? |
| [02:13.666] |
Coming home to wife and kids and failed science experiments |
| [02:21.630] |
Tear down all the laundry lines! |
| [02:29.606] |
Get the sickness out of me! |
| [02:37.787] |
Tear down all the laundry lines! |
| [02:45.645] |
Get the sickness out of me! |
| [02:52.319] |
|
| [02:52.825] |
And we danced to "Cecilia", like I did with my mother |
| [02:59.656] |
Stomping loud, we filled the kitchen up with each other |
| [03:05.922] |
We shaved our heads clean, and left off the lighthouse |
| [03:13.022] |
Kept clothes for ransom, while he pulled the lakes out |
| [03:19.109] |
|
| [03:19.324] |
And he confessed a gravedigger shared with him his bed |
| [03:25.797] |
And I pulled the telephones right out of his head |
| [03:31.123] |
He quit his job, pulled his teeth, and moved down to the harbour |
| [03:39.021] |
He stole all my money to pay for the lawyers |
| [03:45.016] |
And now he's a whale-killer in the wasteland for hire |
| [03:53.551] |
He can only get it up when you set him on fire |
| [04:03.770] |
|
| [04:17.295] |
And now my bashed head can't sew his blood on my back |
| [04:41.323] |
We are broke for bricks, and the house is quiet |
| [04:54.564] |
|
| [05:07.275] |
And I asked him where he put the bones; |
| [05:14.853] |
And I asked her where she put the bones: |
| [05:22.777] |
They fed them to the horses |
