[Verse 1] You came in dry as dust With a grin like a cut Left your coat on my chair Left your lie on my tongue I knew trouble by name When you said, "stay a while" Now the ash in the tray Looks like your crooked smile [Pre-Chorus] And I tried to pray But the words fell flat Every road I took Kept leading back [Chorus] oh Love, your scars are real you dig me in you take me and make it feel Then you leave oh Love, you wear me thin you dig me in you take and take Then you rust turn to dust only lust [Verse 2] Your dress on my floor Your perfume in the seams I still hear your laugh In the drainpipe and the beams Baby, you were sweet Like sugar on a blade I keep picking that wound Though I know what it gave [Pre-Chorus] And I tried to run But my boots stayed stuck Every kiss you left Had the taste of bad luck Love, your scars are real you dig me in you take me and make it feel Then you leave oh Love, you wear me thin you dig me in you take and take Then you rust turn to dust only lust g g [Bridge] If I call your name Will it break the spell? Or just ring in the dark Like a church bell I got empty hands And a crowded heart Every little vow You tore apart [Chorus] [Chorus] oh Love, your scars are real you dig me in you take me and make it feel Then you leave oh Love, you wear me thin you dig me in you take and take Then you rust turn to dust only lust
