Lyrics of Blackout

I just drove under the blinking 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, two fault line's not secure
I'll burn a bridge if needed to get back to her

I feel like i am paralyzed
When i look at the empty 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

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

I feel like i am paralyzed
When i look at the empty 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
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? how to let go?

I'm struggling, i blackout so i can 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 goddamn time i think
About your pale skin dressed in pink
Then at least i could sleep

If i had a shot for every goddamn 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
Then at least i'd get some sleep
