Heart's Too Heavy - John Moreland

Well these angels in my eardrums, they can’t tell bad from good

I’ve lived inside these melodies just to make sure I still could

Then I cried all night even though I’m grown

Said, honey hold me close, make it feel like home

Cause your love’s bright enough to burn all night

Sometimes love is a losing fight

You try to keep going, but the ride won’t steady

You try to get high, but your heart’s too heavy

You got one thing on your mind

Now there’s snake eyes on the sidewalk and fireworks overhead

Won’t you roll out that red carpet when we all wind up dead

As smoke rings fade like a memory

You’re honest as a ghost, maybe twice as free

You’ve got faith enough to lift this curse

What if faith is just a false god’s verse

Now I’m pulling up devils from the long, dark past

But the pain starts piling up too fast

I can pin down the minute when I lost my buzz

Thought I was somebody nobody could love
