Dead Man’s Arms - Bishop Briggs

Falling on the deafest ears
But I know you hear my tears
Crying to the blindest eyes
But I know you see the lies

That’s you, oh Lord
You got more bones than a graveyard
It’s true, oh Lord
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms

Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms
Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms

So blame it on the down-below
Take it from the weakest soul
Bury all your sorrow
Till the dead don’t seem so cold

That’s you, oh Lord
You got more bones than a graveyard
It’s true, oh Lord
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms

Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms)

Oh Lord, you got more bones than a graveyard
It’s true, oh Lord
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms
(Dead Man’s Arms, dead man’s arms)
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms
(Dead Man’s Arms, dead man’s arms)

Maybe it’s built of stone
Maybe it’s dark as coal
Used to be a heart, I’m told
But a heart needs blood to love

You know it’s true, oh Lord
You got more ghosts than a graveyard
That’s you, oh Lord
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms

Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms)

Oh Lord, you got more bones than a graveyard
It’s true, oh Lord
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms

Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms)
Oh, oh, there’s more love in a dead man’s arms
Oh, oh, there’s more love in a dead man’s arms
Oh, oh, oh, oh

It’s you, oh Lord
You got more bones than a graveyard
It’s you, oh Lord
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms

(Dead man’s arms, dead man’s arms)
There’s more love in a dead man’s arms
(Dead Man’s Arms, dead man’s arms)
Oh Lord, there’s more love in a dead man’s arms
