can't find my way back home
I'm walking out here on my own.
life's a long and windy road
it's heavy and tiring carrying this load
I see you standing there along the way,
reaching for you, hopes just at bay.
I've walked alone sad and blue
this weary road is tried and true
fought my way through thick and thin
I'm searching and praying,
you're begging, let me in.
feelings, emotions are swirling around
confusion surrounds me
and I can't find the ground.
I fall astray, lost in the wind
forgive me baby for I have sinned.
I've given up and let you go,
chosen a path no one else would follow,
chosen a road no one could love,
become this person void of all love.
all hope is lost
I look to the sky,
and see you there,
helping me to fly.

the tears are gone,
I'm on my own,
don't bother knocking
cuz nobody's home
I'm rid of you
it was meant to be
those feelings are gone
it's time you leave,
leave me alone,
just go away.
don't talk to me
I don't care what you say.
kiss me not,
I don't love thee now,
our love is over
I swear, I vow.

Tired of these games,
tired of the plays,
I'm hanging up my jersey
and walking off this field.
I'm not gonna wait and see,
how it all goes down,
I'm leaving it to chance,
the rest is up to you.
what you see
is what you get
step in line and
make your bet.
they can try
and bring me down,
against all odds
I'll get around;
the fakes and
all the passes.
just watch them
try to stop me.
I'm at the starting line,
I'm ready, I'm set, let's go.

such a pretty girl
with such sad little eyes.
good at hellos,
but better at goodbyes.
she walks the road,
her music blaring,
heart stone cold,
hope waning.
she's living on some **** and wine,
pretending that soon,
it'll be all fine.
her liver's failing,
her thoughts are sailing.
you'll see her come
and see her go
never realizing,
you'll never know;
who she was
or what she did,
how she tried her might to bring some peace.

It just *****.
That's what I tell everyone when they ask me how I'm doing
And don't take my half hearted okay for the ******* answer it is.
It just ***** ya know?
He went barreling out the this world just as suddenly as he came stumbling into mine.

The open road late at night,
Driving down 22 going 80 smoking a cig and smoking a bowl
That's when I feel most alive.
Taking the early exit just to drive by his house
One.
Last.
Time.

For years I stayed through his ****, a compulsive liar, selfish, demanding, always too serious
But i loved him all the same,
Now I stand alone, left in the cruelest way possible.
Ruined before, now ruined even more.
The drugs won him over and now the drugs help me cope.
I was lost with a road map.
Now even that's been burned and I can't see which way is up.
I guess I'll just keep staying, waiting on forever.
