Lyrics for Burn My Bones

Sleeping deeply in the blood It turns my memories to mud And gnaws inside me like a dog Whose leg is caught beneath a log It eats itself until it's free But I'll eat them, instead of me Hunger, anger Hunger, anger Hunger, anger Hunger, anger Please somebody, burn my bones Please somebody, burn my bones Please somebody, burn my bones And leave the ashes in the snow
