Red-Eye

(album: The Arrival: Part II - 2020)

I'm starting to forget who I was
Things didn't go the way that I was hoping they would
Things never seem to change, wait, and life passes by
Time doesn't wait for you, believe me I've tried

They've turned off the lights, can't turn off the thoughts in my mind
I need one more drink, but there's no attendant in sight
I gotta survive cause I left my old life behind

Xanax for my flight
A one way, alone
Accept what I am
Cause there's no going home

And I hate that it's you
I still need when I can't find my way through
I'm scared on my own, I'm lost & confused
I can't give up now and not see it through, I'm too close to lose

Houston, I'm on the way down
Turbulent skies, I swear that we're lost in the clouds
I can't see the lights, but I know we're almost in town
Awake through the night, I know I need someone around

They turned off the lights, can't turn off the thoughts in my mind
I need one more drink, but there's no attendant in sight
I gotta survive cause I left my old life behind

Xanax for my flight
A one way, alone
Accept what I am
Cause there's no going home

And I hate that it's you
I still need when I can't find my way through
I'm scared on my own, I'm lost & confused
I can't give up now and not see it through, I'm too close to lose
