Johnny Flynn - All The Dogs Are Lying Down lyrics

I saw prayers being made with
Plastic rosaries carpets laid
No thought for furniture
All the dogs are lying down
All the dogs are lying
All the dogs are lying down
All the dogs are lying

As I crept 'way with cracking bones
The steeple rose the way unknown
The steeple has set me down
I listen to the furnished ground

She said soft things, said, "One who lay"
I turn to see the one turned gray
An ash burnt brim with nought he wept
But to the ground my ear had bent

Said softer things and as hath I
The while my horse had run a mile
And lying in the black I wept
For ne’er a lad so wayward crept
Listening hard I felt too young
The wayward saw with older tongues

Screws on screws on left down lip
I’ll burn my day, rue my night
Lost in the battle and found in the fight
Three bought flash tame jump up sick flames
One left and one gone nine left and I’m gone
I’m gone, I’m gone, I’m gone
I saw prayers being made with
Plastic rosaries
Carpets laid, no thought for furniture

All the dogs are lying down
All the dogs are lying
All the dogs are lying down
All the dogs are lying
