lyrics

hiding books in walls
sitting back to trees
painting on her fingers
family names and river leaves
if it was the morning
the yolk was in the spoon
mary died a lover
pray to god that we will too

if it was the baby
lost at seven weeks
nothing for the memory
but the blood across the sheet
no one knew the reasons
no one knew the rules
mary died a lover
pray to god that we will too

i went down with you love
with the cold packs and drugs
when the old house got tore down
and the dead horse dug up
we were looking for something
that we could hold dear
i don’t know what it was
but i know we're here
and i know we’re not done

she was a feather flocker river crosser
holy rider fire walker
don’t be stupid don’t be lazy
hang on tight now you’re my baby
wake up in the morning and that’s all it is

so if it was the mornings
we didn’t feel afraid
picking through the garden
for the kitchen sill bouquet
light across the table
ghosts in every room
mary died a lover
pray to god that we will too
