Band of Horses Lyrics
Cigarettes, Wedding Bands

The working man's daily, just piss it away
Leaves it out in the weather

Familiar, he said, times two breeds contempt
Wash your hands of it forever

Violence it ripped through the old dogwood fence
See the hope, see it unravel

Drunk brother said he could reason with them
While they lie-la-lied, they lie-dee-died, while they lied
while they lie-la-lied, they lie-dee-died, while they lied


The picture was left on the front porch,
the back said:
I love you, don't you ever think of me?

If my body goes, then to hell with my soul
We don't even know the difference

The dead folks in the clouds, for crying out loud
while they lie-la-lied, they lie-dee-died, while they lied
while they lie-la-lied, they lie-dee-died, while they lied


And why, did we live so long
long
long

[Bridge]

The house not the same since we left it that day
Old friends seem to wander
But our parents had cigarettes, wedding bands
while they lie-la-lied, they lie-dee-died, while they lied
while they lie-la-lied, they lie-dee-died, while they lied

And why, did we live so long
long
long

[bridge]

while they lie-la-lied, they lie-la-lied, while they lied
while they lie-la-lied, they lie-la-lied, while they lied

Oh....
