Rattling Locks - Josh Ritter

There was a time I had the right key

Rolled the tumblers

Threw the bolt

On every wandering eye I caught

But something has changed

It’s all wrong

I’m out here in the cold

With a wet face

A-rattlin' your locks

There ain’t nothin' new about the world

That I ain’t learned from 'a just standin' here in this spot

Ain’t nothin' new about the world

That I ain’t learned from just watchin' you go by

I tell myself people are cold

And strangers pass

Separate themselves from love

By buildin' walls a hundred thousand miles high

Frostbite and heartsickness

Ain’t neither one of them so bad

You can understand the reason why

Black hole, black hole

Are your eyes as empty as they look?

Black hole, black hole

How can your two eyes be as empty as they look?

All along I thought I was givin' you my love

But you were just stealin' it, now I want back

Every single thing you took

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

I had a dream where I was dyin'

But it wasn’t no nightmare

I was peaceful as I fell

And if I was fallin' in to heaven

Heaven must be hotter than the bible tells

I woke up sorry I was living

Rather than rattlin your locks

I’d rather spend the night in hell

In hell

In hell

In hell

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black hole

Black hole, black
