Innocent Bones

Innocent Bones – Iron & Wine
Cain got a milk-eyed mule from the auction
Abel got a telephone
And even the last of their blue-eyed babies know
That the burning man is the color of the end of day
And how every tongue that gets bit always has another word to say

Cain bought a blade from some witch at the window
Abel bought a bag of weed
And the even the last of their brown-eyed babies see
That the cartoon king has a tattoo of a bleeding heart
There ain’t a penthouse christian that wants the pain or the scab
but they all want the scar
How every mouth sings of what it’s without so we all sing of love
And how it ain’t one dog who’s good at fucking and denying
who he’s thinking of

Cain heard a cat tumble limp off the rooftop
Abel heard his papa pray
That even the last of their black-eyed babies say
That every saint has a chair you can borrow and a church to sell
And that the wind blows cold across the back of the master
and the kitchen help
There’s a big pile of innocent bones
still holding up the garden wall
And it was always the broken hand we learned to lean on after all

How God knows if Christ came back he’d find us in a poker game
After finding out the drinks were all free
but they won’t let you out the door again
