But everybody's bones are just holy branches

Cast from trees to cut patterns into the world

And in time we find some shelter

Spill our leaves and then sleep in the Earth

Em        G
Now I live alone
D                    A
Work in the belly of machines
                    Em
Wring my soot-black hands
     Dsus4/F#  G
And I don't sleep much
D               
Days don't feel different
         A
From the nights
   (pause)           C/G
With no goals in mind
          Em           D
There's a hole in my chest
                       A
From the time i walked away
                   C/G
One i filled with sweat 
               Em                      D (pause)
'cause now i know i'm  nothin' they want

                            Em            A     C/G
            But everybody's bones are just holy branches

          D                              Em
Ride the breeze to cut patterns in the leaves
       A                 C/G
And in time we find some shelter
          D                            C/G
Spill our seeds and then wait for our turns
        Em           D                  A
But for now we're adrift on the waves of discontent
                    C/G
Trying to carve our place
       Em                           D
All in hopes we'll be something they want
                       Em
But I'm not holding my breath

Em     G     D     Am x4

A          C               A
Trace your fingers down my spine
A         C              A
Make your home behind my eyes
A       C                   A
Line my skull with harmless lies
             C              D              Em
I'll bide my time until I'm something they want

End.
