Artist: Band Of Horses Album: Cease To Begin (2007) Title: Cigarettes, Wedding Bands
Lyrics Cigarettes, Wedding BandsWorking man's day, we just piss it away We sit out in the weather
Failure, he said, times two breeds contempt Wash your hands of it forever
Violence it ripped through the old dogwood fence See the whole scene unravel
Drunk brother said he could reason with them While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied
The picture was left on the front porch, the back said I love you, don't you ever think of me?
If my body goes, then to hell with my soul We don't even know the difference
But dead folks in the clouds, for crying out loud! While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied
And why, did we live so long So long So long
[bridge]
The house is not the same since we left it that day Old friends seem to wander Our parents hands: cigarettes, wedding bands While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied
And why, did we live so long So long So long
[bridge]
While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied While they lied at night, they lied at night, while they lied Oh.... |
