My heart is like a hand me down Made soft by older brothers My body is like my father's house The sin of generations
Damn the circumstances Life is hard enough Damn the bones that rattle Faith is good enough
You shook the ground beneath my feet My hopes turned into water The house came crashing down on me In the early morning hours [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/damn-the-circumstances-lyrics-madeleine-peyroux.html ]
Damn the circumstances Life is hard enough Damn the bones that rattle Faith is good enough
Now the lines are drawn and we sleep in rags at dust where all good will is gone and the dreams we had went bust
Damn the circumstances Life is hard enough Damn the bones that rattle Faith is good enough
