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.
