Bones never lie

about

You got your piece of an architect's mind..

lyrics

You got light, you got space
you got the morning sun across your face
you got your piece of an architect's mind
but too much light is sometimes unkind woah
why's it going wrong

It's in your mind your magazine house
tales of desperation falling from your mouth
You caught the sun, you caught the wind
told them where to start and where they could begin

You looked for birdsign
in an empty sky
I threw the bones
and the bones never lie

We headed off to your retreat
where the view is really hard to beat
we counted shells we counted days
we spent a lifetime rolling in the hay woah
why's it going wrong

Just a taste of another life
oh babe I love to watch you use a knife
The sisterhood they let you in
don't matter what you've done or where you say you've been

You looked for birdsign
in an empty sky
I threw the bones
and the bones never lie

You went west I went south
tales of humble pie was falling from my mouth
Your own design, it did you in
no matter what you've done or where you think you've been

You looked for birdsign
in an empty sky
I threw the bones
and the bones never lie
