Senses Fail - Blackout lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 fault line is not secure" A boat or bridge is needed to get back to her [Chorus] I feel like I'm paralyzed When I look at the extra 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 old weight that I've got to shed Before I find happiness [Verse 2] I make mountains out of my worries 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 the 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! [Chorus] [Bridge] 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 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 dream But I still see you sneaking through my weary head I suffer from a drought of medicine to dull self-doubt I just wanna drown you out with southern poison If I had a drink, for every god damn time I think About your pale skin dressed in pink Then at least I could sleep If I had a shot for every god damn time I thought About your face and what I lost At least I'd get some sleep Sleep, sleep, at least I'd get some sleep Sleep, sleep, sleep, then at least I'd get some sleep
