Conor Oberst - Moab lyrics

rate me

I used up your compassion

So I've come to make a trade

You can hate me but just love me in return

And if I know where to find you

I'll stay out of your way

I won't come beg to borrow all the happiness you earned

I'll just slide back down to the bottom

While you make your place in the hills

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

Washed under the blacktop

Gone beneath my wheels

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

They say the sun won't burn forever

But that's a science too exact

I can prove it, watch we're crossing the state line

See those headlights coming towards us

That's someone going back

To a town they said they'd never, yeah

They swore it on their lives

But you can't break out of a circle

That you never knew you were in

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

Washed under the blacktop

Gone beneath my wheels

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

Someone will spend their precious time

Trying to decorate their lives

Taking measurements for some new look they want

So from 1 to 10, 10's exactly what I am

0 being everything I'm not

Tell me what you like

Is it less than 5

Is it less than 5

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

When I make it to Moab

I'll get my canteen filled

There's nothing that the road cannot heal

Washed under the blacktop

Gone beneath my wheels

There's nothing that the road cannot heal
