Malarkey - Holy Man's Bones

What if we never surface?
What if it's all in vain?
Dashed against the hidden rocks

Tyres slashed for the third time
Nostalgia for a place I've never seen
A time I've never known I've never been

Empty shops in the arcade
Empty streets in the evening
Broken windows and doors
And feelings of being observed

The holy man's bones are washed away by the sea
The great protection stones stand impassively

What if we can't make it back?
Omens flash in the sky
The threat of constant violence
What's the rent in this house of lies?

Burning down the pier
Standing at the precipice
Unspoken ultimatum
All you half-cut liars and sinners should know

The holy man's bones are washed away by the sea
The great protection stones stand impassively

The holy man's bones are washed away by the sea
The great protection stones stand impassively

The holy man's bones are washed away by the sea
The great protection stones stand impassively

The holy man's bones are washed away by the sea
The great protection stones stand impassively
