When I Go

(альбом: High Expectations - 2023)

Self medicated, so complicated
Feel like I never show the man behind that smile
I was fading, while you were praying
Most walked a thousand but I've walked a million miles

I could change but never will
The wounded me could never heal
oh yeah
But that's alright by me
And borrowed time I tried to steal
But my vices they took the wheel
And the wrong direction set me free

And I hope it don't hurt you
Boxing up the memories you miss the most
And I know it won't be easy
But I'm somewhere in the sky, you're not alone

When I go, if you need me
I left a letter in the dresser that I wrote
And I know that I've been selfish
Gone too soon, yeah, that's the truth I've always known

It wasn't hard to face the light with my head high
My life has come at this red light, I lived fast and I loved hard
I know you know so, never walked the line on that tight rope
If you fall, fight back, that's how life goes, you can still find your way back home

Don't lose hope
Gone from my room, but there's no closet full of bones
I paved these roads
Lived out my dreams, but now you have to let me go

And I hope it don't hurt you
Boxing up the memories you miss the most
And I know it won't be easy
But I'm somewhere in the sky, you're not alone

When I go, if you need me
I left a letter in the dresser that I wrote
And I know that I've been selfish
Gone too soon, yeah, that's the truth I've always known
