Lyrics
I live in a house of bones. The devil he calls me home. I'll drown in his hell, this I know all too well, but I've been weighed down with jacob stones. So where is my father today? Was it the devil who took him away? No it was not. Call it time, call it god, but the devil he has no blame. So take me to where he lay. And show me his written name. Oh hes been put down in a box in the ground, and down is where I'm going to stay, Father, father, can you hear me? Father, father let me know. Father, father, have I done you proud? Help me to let you go. I live in a house of bones.
