Only Skin

Press on me, we are restless things
Webs of seaweed are swaddling
and you called upon the dusk of the squid
shot full of ink until you sink into your crib

Show me the house upon the hill where you were livin
The fireplace was stoked, the cupboard stocked full of provisions
And the grandfather clock upon the wall tolls the time
And then came a sound
Love, had you drowned?
Or were you dyin

It was the fire move away
Fire moves away son
Why would you say
I was the last one?

Scrape your knee, it is only skin
Makes the sound of violins
And when you called upon the dusk of the musk of the squid
Shot full of ink until you sink into your crib

Show me the house upon the hill where you were livin
The fireplace was stocked the cupboard stocked full of provisions
and the grandfather clock upon the wall tolls the time
And then came a sound
Love had you drowned?
Or were you dyin

It was the fire move away
Fire that moves a way son
And why would you say
I was the last one?

All my bones, they are gone, gone, gone
All my bones, they are gone, gone, gone, gone
All my bones, they are gone, gone, gone
All my bones, they are gone, gone, gone, gone

You've brightened my day.

[knarkiew]

it's really interesting to see the difference two covers make of this song . . . Like Joanna's song to doublewuzzy's transcription to yours. I like it. I wish I could play the harp...

thought it was a girl lol

[bluebottlekissisgod]

Wow, you are very talented! The song seems so bare without the accompanying orchestration, but you do it very well, considering! Keep up the great work!

[janeczka]
