Senses Fail - Blackout I just drove under the Lincoln sign To where New Jersey meets the New York line And through the tunnel for the last time With everything crumbling behind I stood still until I felt the shakes Of two bodies that were parting ways I didn't want to be the one to say I know this hurts but it's time to break In two pieces The boat line's not secure I'll burn a bridge if needed To get back to her I feel like I'm paralyzed When I look at The absent space left in my bed And think about all the things we did At least I'm feeling more alive But I still have some of my pain I've got to shed Before I find happiness I make moats out of memories And I plant pain Instead of sturdy trees I have got to wash these old sheets So I can fall asleep There are times, there are times I reach for the phone To tell you that there might still be some hope Holding on, holding on to this slack of rope But that's the whiskey talking so I hope that you can find some peace in life Can you survive without me? Cause I thought I'd be fine Now I'm slurring every single line I feel like I'm paralyzed When I look at The absent space left in my bed And think about all the things we did At least I'm feeling more alive But I still have some of my pain I've got to shed I've got to move on before I can find happiness This isn't fair nobody taught me (how to let go) Just be here now and don't be set free (From sorrow) But at this time I don't see clearly (how will I know) What is the point, what is the meaning (how to let go) Now is our goodbye A blackout so I can dream But I still see you sneaking through my weary head I suffer from a drought of medicine to dull self-doubt I just want to drown you out With southern poison If I had a drink For every goddamn I think About your pale skin dressed in pink Then at least I could sleep If I had a shot For every goddamn time I thought About your face and what I'd lost At least I'd get some sleep, sleep, sleep At least I'd get some sleep, sleep, sleep Then at least I'd get some sleep
