lyrics
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
I've heard that every single week
Until I left my savior
to see if art could save a wretch like me
So far it's working out fine
I've gained a gaping hole inside my chest
And all my demons, they moved in with me
They never fill me up, but they sure try their best
It's strange I've made my home here
I've ate at tables with Holy men
Like a stray dog for dinner
I eat my fill just to leave empty again
And now the sadness is setting in
I left Your kingdom just to live in weeds
I wasn't searching for darkness
Just what you promised in this gospel of peace
But God I'd settle for one night of sleep
What's that about grace that burns me up?
Unfailing love, it's not quite enough
I've heard my whisper, now where's my touch
you promised me
Father Heavenly
it's such a beautiful album of grieving and loss and acceptance. it speaks to a particular kind of grief -- not a grieving of one who is lost, but the grieving for one who is still present and still causing pain. i love the last song most because while it could end in pain, or end with the narrators decision to permanently push this person out of their life and that would be justified, it doesn't. instead, it offers something. what is offered? acceptance. hope. and a chance for redemption janmisha
The Oh Hellos have come to hold a very special place in my heart, not just in this album, but in others as well. Hello My Old Heart was one of the first songs I ever heard by them, and it's been a treasured journey listening to them ever since. ladyoforion
