lyrics

They used to say I was a traveler
Giving myself to my friends
They used to say I was a sinner
Lies from beginning to end

Promise you’ll forgive me tomorrow
Because I just can’t bear the end
I’ll buy you a drink, just let me borrow
Your body tonight, let’s pretend

Let’s pretend, lover of mine
Hold my hand, don’t leave me behind
Darlin' keep up, each step in time
Or else I will leave you behind

My god what a mess, can we agree to forget?
I swear you’re not a bother, you’re never a bother

My god what a mess, can we agree to forget?
I swear you’re not a bother, ‘til I decide
Oh please, believe, I need you to see
I swear you’re not a bother, ‘til I decide

Let’s pretend, lover of mine
Hold my hand, don’t leave me behind
Heal my wounds, tell me I’m fine
Or else I will leave you behind

Salt all the graves of all the men who caved
Slowly setting up what we knew was an end

Salt all the graves of all of the men who caved
Slowly settin up what we knew was an end
Slowly coverin up all my old friends

Let’s pretend, lover of mine
Let us stand tall and face our demise
Dear if we’re lucky, we’ll be surprised
Let’s pray for a little rain, oh

Oh pretend, lover of mine
Let us stand tall and face our demise
And dear if we’re lucky, we’ll be surprised
And it’ll rain, it will rain and wash it away

Let’s wash it away
