Damn The Circumstances Lyrics - Bare Bones - Madeleine Peyroux

My heart is like a hand me down 

Made soft by older brothers 

My body is like my father's house 

The sin of generations 

Damn the circumstances 

Life is hard enough 

Damn the bones that rattle 

Faith is good enough 

You shook the ground beneath my feet 

My hopes turned into water 

The house came crashing down on me 

In the early morning hours

Damn the circumstances 

Life is hard enough 

Damn the bones that rattle 

Faith is good enough 

Now the lines are drawn 

and we sleep in rags at dust 

where all good will is gone 

and the dreams we had went bust

Damn the circumstances 

Life is hard enough 

Damn the bones that rattle 

Faith is good enough
