John Moreland - Old Wounds lyrics

I wanna fall asleep forever I wanna learn to disappear Can you take away the mess, that’s been building in my chest Drowning out the song I used to hear Love’s a violent word, don’t you forget it I ain’t saying that you ever could I’ve seen my seasons change I was crying out your name Remember when we used to feel so good So don’t forget to love me in damnation For the living I have earned on love gone wrong And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration If we don’t bleed, it don’t feel like a song You got your honest intuition You got your cigarette smoke And I’m all your oldest fears, the black mark on last year But I got the hope you let me hold So let them judge and shove us under And let them do the devil’s work Let them calculate the crimes in all our broken rhymes But let us find the heaven following the hurt So don’t forget to love me in damnation For the living I have earned on love gone wrong And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration If we don’t bleed, it don’t feel like a song
