Rush On - Nathaniel Rateliff

I hoped it would heal

Or you’d wake when it was over

Now counting the days

Since your breath had closed your eyes

Rush on, rush on

Rush on, rush on

And now you sleep forever

Rush on, rush on

Rush on, rush on

How easy you left

Remembering all your laughter

But deep in your chest

Was a moan that never ends

Rush on, rush on

Rush on, rush on

If I find you, I will wake you

Rush on, rush on

Rush on, rush on

I’d hoped like a prayer

That your brokenness would leave you

But months turned to years

And the emptiness prevailed

Rush on, rush on

Rush on, rush on

All the love and cries could not shake you from your rest

Would’ve given up my sight to take the jaundice from your skin

Rush on, rush on

Rush on, rush on

And now you sleep forever

Rush on, rush on

Rush on, rush on
