Joe

(álbum: Permanent Damage - 2023)

How much of myself can I give away
Till there's nothing left to take from me?
Feels like I'm losing things I can't replace
It's an emptiness that makes me weak

'Cause I built you up
You just break me down
But when I'm alone
I can hear the sound
I just can't stand the way you said my name

I can hear you saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
Don't you ever leave
I can hear you saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
'Cause you're nothing without me

'Cause this is not a ship that could pass in the night
It's a wreck and I'm drowning, been here all my life
I was eighteen and screaming and feeling it all
Now I'm up on the edge of a bridge and I know

If I let you down
Would you let me in?
'Cause when I'm alone
I can hear you now
I just can't stand the way you said my name

I can hear you saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
Don't you ever leave
I can hear you saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
'Cause you're nothing without me
Yeah, you were always saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
Don't you ever leave
I can still hear you saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
'Cause you're nothing without me

'Cause you were always nothing without me
Nothing without me
I don't know what it takes to be happy, yeah

I think I'm petrified of dying
But living's just too hard to walk it off I've tried
Look in the mirror see me crying
But every time I do I hear you say my name

I can hear you saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
Don't you ever leave
Yeah, you were always saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
'Cause you're nothing without me (I still hear you saying)
I can hear you saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
Don't you ever leave (I still hear you saying)
Yeah, you were always saying
Joe, Joe, Joe
'Cause you're nothing without me
Yeah, you are nothing without me
