Lyrics
Verse 1
Male
You trace my name
In the flour on the table
Burnt bread
Cold tea
We pretend that we are able
Your eyes won’t stay
On the ring that’s on your finger
You say you’re fine
But the soft lie starts to linger
Verse 2
Female
Your jacket hangs
On the chair like you might need it
You lock the door
But your heart’s already left it
We talk in halves
All the words we never finish
You hold my hand
Like you’re waiting for it to vanish
Pre-Chorus
Male + Female
Every room remembers us
Every cup
Each broken plate
If love is carved in fragile dust
Why does it carry so much weight?
Chorus
Choir – Gospel style
Dust in our hearts
We’re still breathing
Dust in our hearts
But we stay
If all that remains is this aching and meaning
Dust in our hearts
We won’t blow it away
Dust in our hearts
We’re still singing (oh-oh)
Dust in our hearts when we pray
If all that we have is this aching and meaning
Dust in our hearts
We won’t blow it away
Verse 3
Male
Your mother calls
Says she dreamed we had a daughter
You smile then turn
Wash your face in colder water
Female
You say my name
Like a country you are leaving
We stand so close
But our shadows are not meeting
Pre-Chorus
Male + Female
Every vow and every scar
Every fight we won too late
If love is written in the dark
Why does it shine through all this weight?
Chorus
Choir – Gospel style
Dust in our hearts
We’re still breathing
Dust in our hearts
But we stay
If all that remains is this aching and meaning
Dust in our hearts
We won’t blow it away
Dust in our hearts
We’re still singing (yeah)
Dust in our hearts when we pray
If all that we have is this aching and meaning
Dust in our hearts
We won’t blow it away
Bridge
Female
If you walk
I’ll walk beside you (mmm)
Male
If you break
I’ll break in two
Both
If we’re only ashes
Only ashes
Let me be the ash with you
Chorus
[Choir – Gospel style
Ad-libs]
Dust in our hearts
We’re still breathing
Dust in our hearts
But we stay (we stay, we stay)
If all that remains is this aching and meaning
Dust in our hearts
We won’t blow it away
Dust in our hearts
We’re still singing
Dust in our hearts when we pray (when we pray)
If all that we have is this aching and meaning
Dust in our hearts
We won’t blow it away
Dust in our hearts
We won’t blow it away (oh-oh)
