lyrics

In you I am reminded of everything I’m not/in you I see the worst of things to come/I lay amongst the skeletons of everyone I lost/and tally up the sons of holocaust/and you say it’s okay because everyone’s gotta go someday/waiting by the mailbox for any sign of news/the housewife with nails of skin and stub/she’s gripping on her prayer book and sweating like a fuse/begging to the good lord up above/it’s such a shaky faith to hold/it’s such a shaky faith to hold/it leaves you out there in the cold/it’s such a shaky faith to hold/it turns men into animals/it’s such a shaky faith to hold/it’s such a shaky faith to hold when you know they’re never coming home/wooden creaks and cobwebs fill my humble heart/I’ve memorized your letters word for word/so if you’re never coming back around these parts/at least I’ll still have something left to burn
