You Won't See Me Again

(album: Water - 2018)

Hey it's me
I just don't think I can do this anymore

I've got whiskey on my breath
And destruction on my hands
And you're just too tired to fight
After this last second chance
She said, "You can have it all"
Or you can walk away
I know what I should do
But I only know how to stay

You won't see me again

In every photograph
The same old smiling face
We could always hide the pain
And those times I can't replace
Tears held in right, she said
"Do you wanna be alone?"
I just turned with my head bowed
Stepped out into the cold

I'm scared
That you won't see me again

Went outside
Under the storm in the night
And I fell to my knees
Praying "God, can you find me"

9 months down the road
On the steps of a halfway house
A bin of vacant souls
Help carry my things out
Tears fall from my eyes
She's waiting there for me
For the first time in my life
Know I'm finally free

And I whisper
To the demons
You won't see me again
