No One's Gonna Need You More

(album: War Paint - 2011)

I told you, “Life's not fair.”
At least we know why
It's not an easy air to find
I watched you sink right in
A bottle of wine
It must've seemed like I could die
And i was pining back
Turned out all the lights
And i could barely stand
Coloring the lines in with my proper hand
Lightly pushed away

I'll hold that waiting hand for you
And drown all the words out
I couldn't make it past those eyes
I think i feel like the wind
Sometimes I wish we'd try to begin
No one's gonna need you more
No one's gonna need you more

I've got mine
Moving 'cross the country I lost
Track of time
Trying to make a name for myself
'Cause every lonely heart
Can use an honest song
They can sing along to
You're the home i've been dying to make
And the gold that God didn't take

I'll hold that waiting hand for you
And drown all the words out
Fine, I tried
But falling back to sin
Those nights you were keeping me in skin
No one's gonna need you more
No one's gonna need you more

I hope you listen
I need forgiveness
We both can live with at all
Either way I will reach you
Either way I was wrong
If not for this end
I'll still be wishing
I was right there with you and all
Either way I am see through
Either way I'm not strong
I was staring out
To things I don't want to face
I need back inside your veins
I'm dying out now
