Jesse Revel - Down to the Bone Lyrics

Every day of our lives
We've paid to play
The voices in my mind
Now have nothing to say

There are wolves in the hen house
And the crooks run the jail
Big trouble is coming
And I can't pay no bail

And your shadow
And this mean winter cold
Cuts me down to the bone

All the blackbirds have been saying
There's no reason to stay
The sun only shines here five hours a day
I was born and may dies here
All the same as my kin
But you'd never believe all the places i've been

And your shadow
And this mean winter cold
Cuts me down to the bone

Long, long, long gone
Those simple days before this song
I feel nothing, no
I feel raw
Feel like there are nails in my skull
Shine on now baby
You've got to be strong
The dull knife still cuts to the bone

I've been starting to worry
Maybe I died inside
But I need you tonight
Like the thief needs a lie
And my heart is not heavy
I know right where you are
You were there when they cut me
Now you lust for my scars

And your shadow
And this mean winter cold
Cuts me down to the bone
