I never meant for it to end this way With all these ashes in my hands Yesterday went down in flames so fast I missed my chance But understand I had to give my best Before I left with So much left to say It's best to say goodbye before I can't We could set fire to these years I wouldn't have to dream Let's say a prayer and ask to Turn these tears to gasoline Half the things I thought I'd never have Are here to stay, but I'm just like my dad I'd rather burn it down and walk away I can't hold on Lost my grip then I Lost my mind Hard to find Where did I go wrong I'm just fine I walk this line All the time I just drive until I find what All of this is for Watch me walk into the waves until I wash up on the shore Back in the bathroom on the floor And I'm throwing up Knowing that it's hopeless when I always do the drugs I was supposed to flush Got a baby girl and she's growing up but When she's sleeping Her daddy's dreaming of being rich When he's still broke as f*ck By the time you hear this I'll be gone Somewhere Chasing what I was Dedicated to erasing what I'd done I know I've made mistakes But I still wonder if the day will ever come When the stains'll fade away and I could maybe Give a f*ck I caught that case and told you Basically I'm done I know you want to help so just Pray for me I'm dumb enough to run Your son forgot the place that he was from You'd never recognize my face Because it's full of all the hatred for The stranger I've become There's Hate There's Love There's Faith There's guns There's pain, but it was numb You can't blame it on the drugs I couldn't face the shame for giving up My struggle was in vein Because I paid for it in blood In love, the first cut is the deepest I need the pieces to fit I'm so sick of keeping these secrets These secrets keeping me sick I wish that shit was different Wishing's never got me very far So just sit and listen this is Why I'm not where you are Hold on So you don't sail away Or, let go... The waves won't say my name at all So long... My bones have blown away They can not feel you You're safe I'm not the ghost breathing on your neck I will lose you Your smell somehow remains Those lights, they light your skin The sound of your echo and Those eyes... I'm finished
