Ashes In My Palm

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Hide your ghosts in my hands I can carry the weight You came in like clean rain I came out of the gate There's a crack in the door And it knows my name I keep laughing too hard Just to cover the flame [Pre-Chorus] If you stay, you'll see it The mess I never show If you stay, you'll feel it The fault line down below [Chorus] So if you love me, let me go Let me go before I fold My heart is a locked-up room And the key got lost long ago If you love me, let me go Let me go and spare your soul I can't hold what I can't save I can't give you what I stole [Verse 2] I wore your truth like a coat Till the seams split wide Now the mirror in the hall Won't look me in the eyes Every promise I made Turned to dust in my mouth And the floor under us Keeps giving out [Pre-Chorus] If you stay, you'll see it The wreckage in my chest If you stay, you'll hear it The storm I can't suppress [Chorus] So if you love me, let me go Let me go before I fold My heart is a locked-up room And the key got lost long ago If you love me, let me go Let me go and spare your soul I can't hold what I can't save I can't give you what I stole [Bridge] Take the long road home Don't wait on my name I was born in the smoke And I learned to feed the flames If I change, I might break If I break, I might wake So leave me to the dark Before the dark takes your face [Final Chorus] So if you love me, let me go Let me go before I fold My heart is a locked-up room And the key got lost long ago If you love me, let me go Let me go and spare your soul I can't hold what I can't save I can't give you what I stole
