(Let's try this again. I was having problems embedding this video from youtube, so I'm just providing a link.)
In September, I saw this song performed at the Pageant in St. Louis. I had forgotten how good it was until I came across it on iTunes recently. Enjoy!

My Repair
(approximate lyrics)
night sweat, sheets soakin' wet
i toss and turn tryin' to shake this regret
but i know i'll do it again
water keep risin' over my head
cold bones sink like a stone
down to the deep with the mooring slow (?)
i know you reap what you sow
lost in the dark, awaitin' the glow
oh another night, another song
my angel called to say before long
pulls me up for air
honey, i swear
your love is my repair
oh no sleep swimmin' this deep
in the squalid corners where the shiftless grieve
they lock in to my heartbeat strummin'
can't sniff 'em out, can't see 'em comin'
and all these scars can't be for nothin'
i swear to god i won't be runnin'
'cause we know what nobody knows
we make the rules, they play the fools
oh another night, another song
my angel called to say before long
pulls me up for air
honey, i swear
your love is my repair
and lately
well, i wonder maybe
if we could know at all to which purpose we've been called
but still i'm grateful
that you're not hateful
for all the wrong i cause
still you never depart
oh another night, another song
my angel called to say before long
pulls me up for air
honey, i swear
your love is my repair
when nothin' went right, everything wrong
we lose the money, we lose the song
i don't care
honey, i swear
your love is my repair
