John Moreland - I Always Let You Burn Me to the Ground Lyrics

One, two, three

We never talked about survival
I don't know what good talking would've done
My long lost revival
Withered up in the adolescent sun

Lost, let down
I always let you burn me to the ground
I am unwound
I always let you burn me to the ground

Well, you look like a welcome disaster
Like he only one who knows the naked truth
Show me how to kill my master
Hold me down long enough to grow these roots

Let the rain bear down
I always let you burn me to the ground
A king is crowned
I always let you burn me to the ground

Lost, let down
I always let you burn me to the ground
I am unwound
I always let you burn me to the ground
