Moab Lyrics - Conor Oberst - Conor Oberst

I used up your compassion 

So I've come to make a trade 

You can hate me but just love me in return 

And if I know where to find you 

I'll stay out of your way 

I won't come beg to borrow all the happiness you earned 

I'll just slide back down to the bottom 

While you make your place in the hills 

[Chorus] 

There's nothing that the road cannot heal 

There's nothing that the road cannot heal 

Washed under the blacktop 

Gone beneath my wheels 

There's nothing that the road cannot heal 

They say the sun won't burn forever 

But that's a science too exact 

I can prove it 

Watch, we're crossing the state line 

See those headlights coming towards us? 

That's someone going back 

To a town they said they'd never, yeah 

They swore it on their lives 

But you can't break out of a circle 

That you never knew you were in 

[Chorus] 

Some would spend their precious time 

Trying to decorate their lives 

Taking measurements for some new look they want 

So from one to ten, ten's exactly what I am 

Zero being everything I'm not 

Tell me what you like 

Is it less than five? 

Is it less than five? 

There's nothing that the road cannot heal 

There's nothing that the road cannot heal 

When I make it to Moab 

I'll get my canteen filled 

There's nothing that the road cannot heal 

Washed under the blacktop 

Gone beneath my wheels 

There's nothing that the road cannot heal
