Blackout |
| I just drove under the Lincoln sign |
| To where New Jersey meets the New York line |
| And through the tunnel for the last time |
| With everything crumbling behind |
| I stood still until I felt the shakes |
| Of two bodies that were parting ways |
| I didn’t want to be the one to say |
| I know this hurts but it’s time to break |
| In two pieces, the fault line is not secure |
| A boat or bridge is needed to get back to her |
| I feel like I am paralyzed |
| When I look at the extra space left in my bed |
| And think about all the things we did |
| At least I’m feeling more alive |
| But I still have some old weight that I’ve got to shed |
| Before I find happiness |
| I make mountains out of my worries |
| And I plant pain instead of sturdy trees |
| I have got to wash these old sheets |
| So I can fall asleep |
| There are times, there are times I reach for the phone |
| To tell you that there might still be some hope |
| Holding on to the slack of rope |
| But that’s the whiskey talking, so |
| I hope that you can find some peace in life |
| Can you survive without me? |
| 'Cause I thought I’d be fine. |
| Now I am slurring every single line. |
| I feel like I am paralyzed |
| When I look at the extra space left in my bed |
| And think about all the things we did |
| At least I’m feeling more alive |
| But I still have some old weight that I’ve got to shed |
| I’ve got to move on before I can find happiness |
| This isn’t fair, nobody taught me (how to let go) |
| «Just be here now"and you’ll be set free from sorrow? |
| But at this time, I don’t see clearly (How will I know?) |
| What is the point? |
| What is the meaning? |
| Now I’m struggling, I black out so I can’t dream |
| But I still see you sneaking through my weary head |
| I suffer from a drought of medicine to dull self-doubt |
| I just wanna drown you out with southern poison |
| If I had a drink for every Goddamn time I think |
| About your pale skin dressed in pink |
| Then at least I could sleep |
| If I had a shot for every Goddamn time I thought |
| About your face and what I lost |
| At least I’d get some sleep |
| Sleep, sleep, at least I’d get some sleep |
| Sleep, sleep, then at least I’d get some sleep: |
