Iron And Wine Cinder And Smoke Lyrics

Cinder And Smoke Lyrics

Give me your hand 

The dog in the garden row is covered in mud 

And
dragging your mother's clothes 

Cinder and smoke 

The snake in the
basement 

Found the juniper shade 

The farmhouse is burning down




Give me your hand 

And take what you will tonight, I'll
give it as fast 

And high as the flame will rise 

Cinder and smoke


Some whispers around the trees 

The juniper bends 

As if you
were listening 



Give me your hand 

Your mother is drunk as
all the firemen shake

A photo from father's arms 

Cinder and smoke


You'll ask me to pray for rain 

With ash in your mouth 

You'll ask it to burn again
