Marrow and Bone

Verse 1

Dirt

Underneath

Calloused palms

I scrub until the skin is raw

My heavy head is hanging down

Dead

Weight

Pulling

Nothing stays

Sinking in the garden where the weeds grow thick

Chorus

Take the marrow

Leave the bone

I am sitting on a rusted throne

Take the marrow

Leave the bone

Feeling better when I am alone

I am alone

I am alone

Verse 2

Stare

At the ceiling

Dusty fan spinning slow

Copper taste inside my mouth

Wait

Hope

Gone

Yesterday is rotting in a shallow wooden box

Black water rising up the wall

Cold

Stiff

Chorus

Take the marrow

Leave the bone

I am sitting on a rusted throne

Take the marrow

Leave the bone

Feeling better when I am alone

I am alone

I am alone

Bridge

Cut the wire

Feed the fire

Kill the liar

Down

Down

Down

Everything is grey

Everything is gone

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Take the marrow

Leave the bone

I am sitting on a rusted throne

Take the marrow

Leave the bone

Feeling better when I am alone

I am alone

I am alone

Outro

I am alone

Leave the bone

Scrub the skin

Let it in

Down

Down

Down
