Madeleine Peyroux - Damn the CircumstancesLyrics

My heart is like a hand-me-down made soft by older brothers My body's like my father's house, the sin of genera~ons 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 moming 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 the rags and dust Where all good will has gone and the dreams we had went bust Damn the circumstances Life is hard enough Damn the bones that rattle Faith is good enough
