Skin and Bones歌词

Skin And Bones - The Avett Brothers
It's the skin and bones
that keep me on the road

The shoulderblades of a beast
that haunts my soul

Wandering lonely and scared

I live the tragedy I shared

It's quick to drag you in
but hard to shake

A kiss that doesn't match
how much it takes

Growing stronger and loud

I lived it but now I'm wanting out

I built the fence, I hung the sign
Wine red letters said 'Keep in mind
Where I been so don't come in'

But how long can you live in shame
And drop a life long curse
on your own last name
The trouble is, I'm used to it

It's the questions
that keep me turning back

To see those rumors turned to fact

Wandering lonely and scared

I live the tragedy I shared

I built the fence, I hung the sign
Blood red letters said 'Keep in mind

Where we've been so don't come in'

But how long can we live in shame
And drop a life long curse
on our own last names
The trouble is, we're used to it

The trouble is, we're used to it

The trouble is, we're used to it

It's the tin and board
that keep me going home

But it's who I am
that won't let me alone

Growing stronger and loud

Growing stronger and loud

Growing stronger and loud
