Blackout

I just drove under the Lincoln signTo where New Jersey meets the New York lineAnd through the tunnel for the last timeWith everything crumbling behindI stood still until I felt the shakesOf two bodies that were parting waysI didn�t want to be the one to sayI know this hurts but it�s time to breakIn two pieces, the fault line is not secureA boat or bridge is needed to get back to herI feel like I am paralyzedWhen I look at the extra space left in my bedAnd think about all the things we didAt least I�m feeling more aliveBut I still have some old weight that I�ve got to shedBefore I find happinessI make mountains out of my worriesAnd I plant pain instead of sturdy treesI have got to wash these old sheetsSo I can fall asleepThere are times, there are times I reach for the phoneTo tell you that there might still be some hopeHolding on to the slack of ropeBut that�s the whiskey talking, soI hope that you can find some peace in lifeCan you survive without me?�Cause I thought I�d be fine.Now I am slurring every single line.I feel like I am paralyzedWhen I look at the extra space left in my bedAnd think about all the things we didAt least I�m feeling more aliveBut I still have some old weight that I�ve got to shedI�ve got to move on before I can find happinessThis isn�t fair, nobody taught me (how to let go)�Just be here now� and you�ll 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?Now I�m struggling, I black out so I can�t dreamBut I still see you sneaking through my weary headI summer from a drought of medicine to dull self-doubtI just wanna drown you out with southern poisonIf I had a drink for every Goddamn time I thinkAbout your pale skin dressed in pinkThen at least I could sleepIf I had a shot for every Goddamn time I thoughtAbout your face and what I lostAt least I�d get some sleepSleep, sleep, at least I�d get some sleepSleep, sleep, then at least I�d get some sleep�
