Bone Reed Riot

You came in костly

With that grin on ice

I smelled the smoke

Before you said my name

Bare hands, bare teeth

On the table, wait

My bones knew the shape

Of the game you play

Tell me now

Who do you trust?

When the floor goes loose

And the blood runs rust

I hear that reed

Cut through the pain

Like a blade in silk

Calling me again

Bone reed riot

Bone reed riot

Blow it apart

Till the dark takes flight

Bone reed riot

Bone reed riot

Hear me now

We don’t beg tonight

Ash on your cuffs

Mud on my boots

We dragged our names

Through a pit of truth

Old house, new scars

Cracked glass, cold air

You fed me lies

I served you stare for stare

Tell me now

Who do you trust?

When the floor goes loose

And the blood runs rust

I hear that reed

Cut through the pain

Like a blade in silk

Calling me again

Bone reed riot

Bone reed riot

Blow it apart

Till the dark takes flight

Bone reed riot

Bone reed riot

Hear me now

We don’t beg tonight

Breath in the mouthpiece

Rage in the chest

One thin note

And the wolves come next

Break that cage

Let it scream in gold

One last blast

Then the story’s told

Bone reed riot

Bone reed riot

Blow it apart

Till the dark takes flight

Bone reed riot

Bone reed riot

Hear me now

We don’t beg tonight

Bone reed riot

Bone reed riot

One sharp cry

And the night gives way
