City of Skin and Bone

Started with the stone Setting in the ground Lying on the pathways through our town Started with the rain fall Buttering your face it all Started when the gale came whistling Whistling down My love Seems the dust hasn't settled On the city we left alone And the vultures are circling above The city of skin and bone Started with our lungs Choking on exhaust Searching for a sign until we're lost Started with the pavement Loveless embrace it all Started when the gale came to carry us so far away And my love Seems the dust hasn't settled On the city we left alone And the vultures are circling And the vultures are circling above The city of skin and bone And it makes you now Anser the call from again And leaves you alone, lone, lone Started with the stone Setting in the ground Think that you can call yourself a home With the roof that would never feel the rain And my love Seems the dust hasn't settled On the city we left alone And the vultures are circling And the vultures are circling above My love It seems that dust hasn't settled On the city we left alone And the vultures are circling And the vultures are circling above The city of skin and bone
