Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You poured your hurt in a bottle
Set your hope on the flame
Swore last night was the last time
Woke up doing the same old thing again
You got clean clothes
Clean language
You can talk like you’re free
But that old shake in your fingers
Keeps unlocking the worst in me
[Chorus]
It’s that trance of the same old thing
Heart keeps walking where the hurt still sings
I know better
I can do better
But the wheel rolls back
Drags me in
Oh this love
This loss
This spin
I’m wide awake
Still I go under again
[Verse 2]
You’re the storm and the shelter
You’re the bruise and the balm
Every fight
Every promise
Fades quick as a calm
I see my face in the mirror
I see my father’s eyes
Man who knew every answer
Still believed his own lies
[Chorus]
It’s that trance of the same old thing
Heart keeps walking where the hurt still sings
I know better
I can do better
But the wheel rolls back
Drags me in
Oh this love
This loss
This spin
I’m wide awake
Still I go under again
[Bridge]
How many little goodbyes
Till I mean one for real (oh, someday)
How many almost-remembered prayers
Till this scar can heal
[Chorus]
It’s that trance of the same old thing
Heart keeps walking where the hurt still sings
I know better
I can do better
But the wheel rolls back
Drags me in
Oh this love
This loss
This spin
I’m wide awake
Still I go under again
[Outro]
One slow step from the doorway
One slow step from your name
I want better
I can do better
While the blues keeps calling me the same
