Megan McCormick - Rake Me Over the Coals (feat. Jenny Lewis) Lyrics

Stretching time like a rubber band
Look for diamonds in the black sand
In a dream where I would take your hand
You would tell me that you understand

A heavy heart in hiding, full of fear but still fighting
Don't knock it till you try it
Just rake me over the coals, this is the life that I chose
I can take it now

Sleepwalk, am I closing doors?
Like a lovesick troubadour
It's not you, it's just love and war
I guess I'm always wanting something more?

All the time I spent waiting, rewriting pages
And now I f*ckin' hate it
It's like I'm stuck in a movie, saddest scene is on repeat
I don't know what you mean to me

I gave you fire baby, and then I put it out
All the hope we had turning into doubt
I see it in your heart, I taste in your mouth
Now I hear your words out loud, crying out
