Joe Henry - Sold lyrics

Please don't speak another truth out loud Whatever else you do, I only want you keep me lost in your cloud I'll do the same for you. Don't believe a single thing you've heard Really, I'm as good as gold. You don't need to sell me with another word I'm already sold If I give in to your open arms Then you can think the worst of me For pulling out my weakness like a charm And making sure you'd see. Love, when it's defeated, just remember Can still keep you in its hold. No need now to tempt me with surrender I'm already sold What was that, A lonesome battle cry? Sweeping in upon us from the rear? Like a child, I hide my eyes And think I've disappeared. Mercy, hope, faith and love and treason Are trump as long as darkness holds, I don't need to see the sun, there's no reason I'm already sold
