The Venetia Fair - Bleeding A Stone lyrics

Watch what you say! 'Cause I swear to god I'll burn this whole thing to the ground The luckiest vultures will choke on the ash while the rest lay down to starve without a scrap It was an electrical fire And I can keep a story straight If you're gonna come for us You'll be bleeding a stone while it rolls down hill And if I'm gonna fail at least allow me to blame it on myself Watch how it plays! I almost hope you'll call my bluff and roll the dice Like a snake eyes its prey you just watched for the chance to come slithering beneath the smoke unscathed It was an electrical fire I'll keep my story straight A simple fraying of wires I should've been more careful Taste the soot on your tongue It's a blizzard of all the things I was scared I'd give up on But I'd throw myself in the fire to snuff you out If you're gonna come for us The bones will have already been picked clean And your loneliness comforts us If you're gonna come for us Search all you want there'll be nothing left And your loneliness comforts us But you'll never blame it on yourself If I'm gonna fail, like you're certain I will, at least let me blame it on myself
