this is a cover of "eskimo snow" by why?

lyrics

all of my words for sadness
like eskimo snow on unmanned crosses all
planted in threes in a field for living trees
i hum these prayers in secret
and sung them through speakers in rooms for people to hear it
even when I'm wasted and numb
with the words for good wine on a philistine's tongue

and I'm under something black
and thicker than a sheet for ghosts
in the first beat of snow
that old cloud's you
on the crosses on the chests of dead soldiers in a field
and I'm still here
bearing my watery fruits if fruits at all
and I'm still here
barely understanding what truth that rarely calls
