Jill Ledet – Veil The Bone lyrics

So you had a lot to say
Another week has gone by
Dusty streetlights hang to greet you,
I could have the dark, my heart like wine...
So tell me babe when the firelight starts smokn
Where does the air come from
You were careless when the words were like
Shattered glass ripping me to pieces

[Chorus:]
Veil the bone
Tie me in chains
You do it so well
I'm breakn free
From this hell

It's like I'm flying on a wing
Walking on a leg
Seeing with an eye
Writing with a finger
There you are to greet me with a smile
Swimming in me 51 laps
Get up towel yourself off
And walk away leaving salt drops

I'm all over you now
But you come back for more

[Chorus:]

Veil the bone
Tie me in chains
You do it so well
I'm breakn free
From this hell

All in a day feels like a year
Yeah you once bought me roses
You once called me love
You painted me a garden
You had me at hello

I said seize it
Freeze it
Just curtail it
Cause I know just
Where it went on snow hill

[Chorus:]
Veil the bone
Tie me in chains
You do it so well
I'm breakin free
From this hell

When you need me
You're so accomodating
But I had to get back
On the main road
Cause my car is an island
With water rising

You had me alone and
All at once
I cradled your face
That turned to skeleton bone

[Chorus:]

Veil the bone
Tie me in chains
You do it so well
I'm breakn free
From this hell

You had me alone and
All at once
I cradled your face
That turned to skeleton bone

(Repeat chorus)
