Flesh & Bones - The Sweeplings

Cover the silence

With blankets of pain

Put up your walls and hide away

Broken and empty

With nothing to say

Breath in the memory choked away

And flesh and bones

Takes it’s tole

Feel the darkness fall

Everything we had’s been torn apart

Oh, only bite and nickel does remain

Only flesh and bones

Flesh and bones

The floors have been quiet

No more pieces to claim

Stillness is sleek between our frames

Remember the pressure

Feeling the ache

Long been a masterpiece now grain

And flesh and bones

Takes it’s tole

Feel the darkness fall

Everything we had’s been torn apart

Oh, only bite and nickel does remain

Only flesh and bones

Flesh and bones

Tension building

Long before

These are the signs

The cracks in the boards

Daring eyes to know is

Why, why this damage

No reason to change

Day turned to night

Feel the darkness fall

Everything we had’s been torn apart

Oh, only bite and nickel does remain

Only flesh and bones

Flesh and bones
