Frightened Rabbit - 400 Bones lyrics
[Frightened Rabbit - 400 Bones lyrics]
400 Bones, crumpled in bed
I'm the only one who knows
That you're still breathing
Beneath the blanket of another French death
This afternoon is one I will be keeping
Where skin is painted by a brush from the sun
Pull the sheets up to your neck
So she can't see us
And let the clocks do all
The worrying for once
We're passing out inside
The sleeping mausoleum
This is my safe house in the hurricane
Here is where my love lays
200 treasured bones
This is my warmth behind the Cold War
This is what I’m living for
Forever coming home
Here's to the room I can rest in
The door I've always opened
Never to be closed you as my horizon line
The star I navigate by
Takes me back to hold 200 perfect bones
On absent days I will return to this place
And play a silent colour film within my head
In which the pillow leaves a
Code upon your face
And all at once it all makes perfect sense
400 bones, crumpled in bed
I'm the only one who knows
That you're still breathing
I'm the only one who knows
That you're still breathing
Beneath the blanket of another French death
This afternoon is one I will be keeping
Where skin is painted by a brush from the sun
Pull the sheets up to your neck
So she can't see us
And let the clocks do all
The worrying for once
We're passing out inside
The sleeping mausoleum
This is my safe house in the hurricane
Here is where my love lays
200 treasured bones
This is my warmth behind the Cold War
This is what I’m living for
Forever coming home
Here's to the room I can rest in
The door I've always opened
Never to be closed you as my horizon line
The star I navigate by
Takes me back to hold 200 perfect bones
On absent days I will return to this place
And play a silent colour film within my head
In which the pillow leaves a
Code upon your face
And all at once it all makes perfect sense
400 bones, crumpled in bed
I'm the only one who knows
That you're still breathing
