Burned Down Lyrics & Chords By Reid Genauer

Burned down but not forgotten
The walls were sturdy but the floor was rotten
Men like phantoms moving in the cold
Men like phantoms move - well

[Chorus]
This is the house that silence built
This is the place where she takes her shelter
I know the game she plays
Lays down the hand that a hard life dealt her

Mule Skinner you can call this house your home
You come a stranger but you seldom leave alone
Standing on the edge of a dying hour
They were standing on the edge - well

Raise high the roof beams everyone
Choose your words wisely and be done
Hearing accusations from yourself
You can hear them from yourself - well

Standing on the slope of an icy roof
You amble out but the answers are aloof
A month of hungry Sundays in a row
You can find them in a row - well
