NEEDTOBREATHE and Natalie Hemby - Don't Throw All the Good Things Away

Hear me out
Why is it so hard to do?
All these years
find out that I didn't know you
There is dust in the air
Blood on the road
There's a hole in my world
Where you used to go
Is it all in my head
Or are we really alone tonight?

Ooh-ooh-ooh
No more heartache and hand-me-down pain
I know I'm a part of this war and this play
I'm tired now and I just gotta say
Don't spit on the grave while your family weeps
Don't throw all the good things away

Is it worth
Burning down every bridge?
Go and search
For the one victory that you get
There's a boundary line that's covered in snow
It's cold and it's hard to know
Is it worth
Finding yourself all alone?

Ooh-ooh-ooh
No more heartache and hand-me-down pain
I know I'm a part of this war and this play
I'm tired now and I just gotta say
Don't spit on the grave while your family weeps
Don't throw all the good things away

Now's no time to be
Giving up our history
This house is going up in flames
Am I something you would save?

Ooh-ooh-ooh
No more heartache and hand-me-down pain
I know I'm a part of this war and this play
I'm tired now and I just gotta say
Don't spit on the grave while your family weeps
Don't throw all the good things away
