Iron & Wine – Freedom Hangs Like Heaven Lyrics 15 years ago
I think the first and third verses are about Mary, Jeuss mother. The second verse sounds like it is about Mary Magdelene. He also references the ten virgins in that verse, with the "lamp oil lovers". "Mary, carry your shame" could be about the fact that it is implied she was a prositute.
