Time for Never
It is 2am and I am wide awake
Can't shut down my racing thoughts
How much more can I take
Sometimes it's all my fault
The more my mind wanders
Deeper in anxiety I fall
Unable to regain control
I am slowly killing us all
Got to do this
But not until that
Is there ever an end
Help is all I ask
Reliving past hurts
Fearing new ones in the future
Scared of right now
I am fading much sooner
Struck down by reality
I am only getting older
Destined for failure
Young love is really over
When did it happen
That I came to resent
My partner for life
The feelings just went
Floating in your drink
Hurry, you got to have another
I am always second best when
alcohol and liquor are your lovers
Even though you're not violent
And when drunk, rarely mean
Can you not feel the change
Love faded too fast it seems
No hello, good bye, no how was your day
And never a 'love you'
You don't care if I stay
I am a ghost floating in my home
I try to let go
We need on our own
I am in a full blown panic mode
Thinking of all the wasted years
I just wanted your attention
But you give it to beer
I won't daydream about a new life forever
It will kill me if I do
You are always suspicious
Maybe I just no longer love you
Empty circles of gold
The rings have been gone
Long since misplaced
It is time to give up this home
Take what you want
Tell whatever makes you feel better
I don't think I can do this anymore
It is time for that never
Can't shut down my racing thoughts
How much more can I take
Sometimes it's all my fault
The more my mind wanders
Deeper in anxiety I fall
Unable to regain control
I am slowly killing us all
Got to do this
But not until that
Is there ever an end
Help is all I ask
Reliving past hurts
Fearing new ones in the future
Scared of right now
I am fading much sooner
Struck down by reality
I am only getting older
Destined for failure
Young love is really over
When did it happen
That I came to resent
My partner for life
The feelings just went
Floating in your drink
Hurry, you got to have another
I am always second best when
alcohol and liquor are your lovers
Even though you're not violent
And when drunk, rarely mean
