"My Bones" lyrics - THE PRETTY RECKLESS

In the mist of the mornin' while the beast was asleep
Woke up with a plan so brilliant I could not believe
A mother and father, daughter and friends
Don't tell them, don't trust them, they won't understand
If you can't win the battle, it's better to run

[Chorus:]
Bury it down with my soul
Down in my soul
Down with my soul
Where they'll never find me

[Post-Chorus:]
My bones
My bones

Way out in the garden, way out in the fields
So far from these civilized nations and [?] deuce
Birds, they all know it, they showed it to me
Forgotten by man, there stands in a old hanging tree
Forgotten by man, there stands in a old hanging tree
Some roots are still growin', they died long ago

[Chorus:]
Bury it down with my soul
Down in my soul
Down with my soul
Where they'll never find me

[Post-Chorus:]
My bones
My bones
My bones
My bones

[Bridge:]
Follow me, don't follow me
(Follow me) When I was young I could perfectly see
Now I'm as blind, blind as a girl can be
(Follow me) Out of insanity into ecstasy
We all sin, so why am I so guilty?
Back to the trenches of the life I lead
This hole, the only place that I can be free
And out on the deep blue sea
Is where, is where I'll be
Don't follow me

[Outro:]
In the mist of the mornin'
While the beast was asleep
I carried out my plan
I carried out my plan
I carried out my plan
I carried out my plan
I carried out my plan
(I carried out my plan)
