someone else's bones - Shrug

Angels caught up with me today

They asked me where I’d been

All I could do is sweat and mumble and stumble away

They just wouldn’t understand and nor would you, nor would anyone at all

It’s a curse, a stone that I don’t own

Someone else’s bones beat me further down the road

I was having such a lovely time

I didn’t even notice you

My ivory beanstalk is such a very long and lonely climb

The clouds got in the way, it’s in my blood, maybe only in my head

Well, I will try to clone my only throne

Someone else’s bones isolate and pain me so

I kneel down, I kiss your holy debris

I feel the cleansing rust raining down on me

Well, it’s much too lonely there, and much too dark to see

That someone else’s bones have run away with me

I kneel down, I kiss your holy debris

Well, I feel the cleansing rust raining down, down on me

Well, it’s much too lonely there, and much too dark to see

That someone else’s bones have run away with me

Angels caught up with me today

They asked me where I’d been

All I could do is sweat and mumble and stumble away
