Common Crook

(album: Hurt - 2015)

I got a phantom storm inside my head
I got a million different reasons I should be dead
I put the pen to the paper and the pedal to the floor
The love that never happened went out the door
I got the Arizona desert inside my chest
I got a million different reasons, there's nothing left
I opened a dam and let the blood flood out
Hoping like hell that I could end this now

On and on we'll always fall but at least we got these songs
I got 100 reasons I'm still depressed
An ocean of songs swimming through my head
The salt from my tears could fill the Salton sea
But if they dry out they'd be the end of me
On and on we'll always fall but at least we got these songs

Push the curtains, lets waste the day away
Forget about tomorrow for the love of yesterday
I miss you like a common ground
You stole my heart like no-one would
And I need you, I need you right now
I'm having trouble letting go
The nights are longer, the days are slow
I'm trying not to hear you but
I know the surge is twice as much as real
I'm having trouble letting go
The nights are longer, the days are slow
I'm trying not to hear you but
I love this urge twice as much as me
I love this urge twice as much as me
