How many times have you lied to me now?
Its like counting sheep, but I'm sleeping in Hell.
With all of these bruised and battle scars now,
its like begging for change with nothing to sell.

No, I don't believe we can start over now,
with so much behind us I'd lie to myself.
I'm broken and bleeding, and getting just by.
I've lost thousands of tears, but I'm still alive

I'll survive, I'll get through this too
but nothings as easy when you're broken in two
The hardest thing I believe that I'll have to do,
is leave you behind

I'm not so naΓ―ve to forget the past.
Forgiving is easy, but forgetting don't last.
It all comes back clearly, when I least expect
Why would I choose to live this way?

I'll survive, I'll get through this too
but nothings as easy when you're broken in two
The hardest thing I believe that I'll have to do,
is leave you behind

Now its time to move on, I'm a little too late
Take care of yourself, don't give nothing away
And don't believe everything you hear people say
I'll always be thinking of you.

I'll survive, I'll get through this too
but nothings as easy when you're broken in two
The hardest thing I believe that I'll have to do,
is leave you behind
Written in the front seat of a car, traveling down US-55 through Mississippi in the spring of 2013, as a song for my solo project.
