Cinder and Smoke

Give me your hand
The dog in the garden row is covered in mud
And dragging your mother's clothes
Cinder and smoke
The snake in the basement
Found the juniper shade
The farmhouse is burning down

[link] I adore Iron & Wine. So...haunting.

So, I really dont know where this came from. Frankly, i dont even know who these two are.

Which is why I need suggestions. Names, personalities, etc. I'm thinking something from the time of Pride & Prejudice. Well, maybe like...old fashioned Chuck and Blair...?
