Sacred Ground
Love me like a memory held too long
Like the need to feel some forgotten song
Kiss me to chills like there's only me
Like it's hard to kill the last cottonwood tree
Love me later when the stars fall down
A burning light for a wedding gown
They stole the blood right out of this ground
They'd still kick a flower when it's down
Help me trace the scars on mountains
The sun that sets in a bloody fountain
Take me home and lay me down
On the hungry earth (Love me, love me)
On the sacred ground
Love me like the breath you held too deep
Like the need you feel to lay still beneath
Leave me with teeth marks on my skin
Like some holy spirit's tryna get in
Love me like a rumor you can't outlive
Like the deepest cut you'll ever forgive
They stole my blood right out of this ground
They'd still kick a flower when it's down
Help me trace the scars on mountains
The sun that sets in a bloody fountain
Take me home and lay me down
On the hungry earth (Love me, love me)
On the sacred ground
Like the need to feel some forgotten song
Kiss me to chills like there's only me
Like it's hard to kill the last cottonwood tree
Love me later when the stars fall down
A burning light for a wedding gown
They stole the blood right out of this ground
They'd still kick a flower when it's down
Help me trace the scars on mountains
The sun that sets in a bloody fountain
Take me home and lay me down
On the hungry earth (Love me, love me)
On the sacred ground
Love me like the breath you held too deep
Like the need you feel to lay still beneath
Leave me with teeth marks on my skin
Like some holy spirit's tryna get in
Love me like a rumor you can't outlive
Like the deepest cut you'll ever forgive
They stole my blood right out of this ground
They'd still kick a flower when it's down
Help me trace the scars on mountains
The sun that sets in a bloody fountain
Take me home and lay me down
On the hungry earth (Love me, love me)
On the sacred ground
