It's 2 a.m., the TV's on Am I alright? Hell, I don't know It's gettin' harder to be myself The dim lit corner of this house As cold as you when you walked out And said I didn't know how to love
I pray at night to get relief In a blood-stained Bible that I read Besides the nights that I do drink To see you home is my dyin' wish But that's just somethin' God can't fix There's no good days on this side of Hell
You said, "Watch the way that you light that wick 'Cause the field's gettin' dryer and it burns up quick Like the way your restless mind Lets in every demon when you don't know why" When the walls close in, and I'm lost in all my sin If Heaven lets me in, will I see your face again?
I can't be your angel all the time Only God knows that I've tried Can't fix every broken part of you You spent so much time just livin' in the dark And I hope you know that wherever you are There's two paths you can take
And I said, "Watch the way that you light that wick 'Cause the field's gettin' dryer and it burns up quick Like the way your restless mind Lets in every demon when you don't know why" When the walls close in, and I'm lost in all my sin If Heaven lets me in, will I see your face again?
You spent so much time just livin' in the dark And I hope you know that wherever you are We spent so much time just livin' in the dark And I hope you know that wherever you are There's two paths you can take
And you said, "Watch the way that you light that wick 'Cause the field's gettin' dryer and it burns up quick Like the way your restless mind (restless mind) Lets in every demon when you don't know why When the walls close in (when the walls close in) And I'm lost in all my sin (and I'm lost in all my sin) If Heaven lets me in, will I see your face again?
