"Ancient History" lyrics

"Ancient History"

My dreams keep diggin' up the bones of memories
Discarded remnants of former times
Now every skeleton is slappin' its knees
Laughin' at the holes he left behind

I try
Try to let it fade away
Let it fade away (try)
Let it fade away
But I still hold on

My body's achin' like a knocked down drag out
And my poor heart is an open wound
It's ancient history
That's bleedin' out of me
So what am I supposed to do?

I try
Try to let it fade away
Let it fade away (try)
Let it fade away
But I still hold on

Oooh-oooh
Oooh-oooh
Oooh-oooh
Oooh-oooh

Let it fade away
Let it fade away
Let it fade away
Oh I let it fade away
