Wait for the engines to cool
And den heat is slowing the bones
A heart that beats but can't proceed
Through dirt and weeds
A long expanse of road and nothing in between
Not a face or hand to greet
I pushed this thing too hard
I always push too hard

What can heal me now that...

I've got a cut that won't close
A secret so safe we both know
A covenant made with my soul
I got a cut that won't close

Wait for, wait for
Wait for the burn to set in
Wait for it, wait for it
Wait for the engine to turn
At this stage I know what I've earned
A heart that beats
I won't concede for want or need
A long expanse of road and nothing in between
Not a face or hand to greet
I pushed this thing too hard
I always push too hard

Now I've got a cut that won't close
A secret so safe we both know
A covenant made with my soul
I got a cut that won't close

I found a thing to grab
Shaky within my grasp
I got a cut that won't close
I got a cut that won't close

I got a cut that won't close
Now I've got a cut that won't close
Now I've got a cut that won't close
Now I've got a cut that won't close
