about

First song written on the album back in 2010 during a shift at the Five Points Starbucks. Going through hell with a love that spanned the width of the U.S.

lyrics

This weary love, it brings me down
Won't let me sleep, it won't let me drown
Your soul sings back the dark and haunted sounds
Of this weary love of mine

This weary love, it brings me down
Won't let me sleep, it won't let me drown
Your soul sings back the dark and haunted sounds
Of this weary love of mine

My tender heart would live again
Clear eyes, fresh breath inhaled when you walked back in
Our bodies helpless to this sin
But she brings no rest and only shame
This weary love and her sad refrain
This weary love of mine

This weary love, it brings me down
Won't let me sleep, it won't let me drown
Your soul sings back the dark and haunted sounds
Of this weary love of mine

Oh let me rest, lay down my head
We live and and then we die, but love's never dead
She still whispers in our bed
The day we pass, she screams our name
The globe spins on and we hear the strains of
This weary love of mine

Let me lay my head down now
Let me lay my body next to yours
Give me truth and if you can't then,
Give me peace
I gave you all of my best
You could at least give me rest
Give me rest, give me rest, give me rest

This weary love, it brings me down
Won't let me sleep, it won't let me drown
Your soul sings back the dark and haunted sounds
Of this weary love
This sad and soulful love
This poor and painful love of mine
