Califone - Bottles And Bones (shade And Sympathy) lyrics

Bottles and bones (shade and sympathy)

Nervous john

Rescues all the whores

Bleeding nose and all

Taste

of metal

When you’re hit straight on

Frozen dimes and

throwing flashes

Clouds of angels liquored pink and

underage

Steal your sweet decline

This is the longest

goodbye

Loose breaks on

A one eyed continental

Engine willing

Interior stained

China rattles

wish

The cold pacific shallows

Spells and fits

resurrected

Calls you in

Forget your sweet decline

This is the longest goodbye

Aching to get your pocket

picked

Bottles and bones shade and sympathy

Kick the

glass out of your path

Calls you in

Traps for your

fingers

Fire for your mouth

Stones for your passage

Brass for your jaded

Underneath the baking clouds and

hardening starless skies

Lick your collarbone clean

And repeat.
