Wide awake in clothes I haven't changed For days and days as the sun creeps through the window on my face Just let it go You say I'm like a ghost My skin is white as paper as I haunt the halls of my home, oh-oh I scream like it would stop the ache Your colors start to show (show) I know what I have to do, but it kills me Rewriting all the songs I'd change your name, but I know you'll still take everything to heart Just let it go I wonder if we'll die with hope Or if we'll be counting the sins we carry deeply as we go I just wanted you to have a better life Not always shying away from your thoughts on the inside I, I could set you free I put you on a shelf, knowing that I'd be Too far to reach you from down in hell The sun slumps back as I burn your dreams To the best of my ability, so just let me leave I scream like it would stop the ache Your colors start to show (show) I know what I have to do, but it kills me Sleep, if anything, I'll dream It's only then I'll have you I know what I have to do, but it kills me

How can this be Though all these years I have been true to thee You had the nerve to say you're done with me And that I should leave, girl, you're killing me Take another day Before you go and throw it all away And if you do I know we'll find a way Just believe in me 'cause I'm here to stay Don't let me leave here, girl 'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way Girl, I know you need me by your side You don't see it, but I know it, this is why Don't let me leave here, girl Just let me tell you why You're all I ever needed And everything worth fighting for Before you go and throw it all away Girl, I just know that we can find a way Please believe in me 'cause I'm here to stay Don't let me leave here, girl 'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way Girl, I know you need me by your side You don't see it, but I know it, this is why Don't let me leave here, girl Just let me tell you why You're all I ever needed And everything worth fighting for Don't let me leave here, girl 'Cause if I do I promise I will look the other way Girl, I know you need me by your side You don't see it, but I know it, this is why Don't let me leave here, girl Just let me tell you why You're all I ever needed And everything worth fighting for You're all I ever needed And everything worth fighting for

(It's something about the) (Whooo!) (It's something about the way) I build bad habits not to think of you (Not to think of you) I'd blame it on the weather But it's nothing new Sit on the couch, you're running your mouth I think I've hurt enough But I medicate while I contemplate If I am worth my love (Yeah yeah yeah yeah) I used to be an independent - (Oh) I told you I would find my way back home Miss me on those late-night drives I'm lost in the playlists I liked Take me through my wasted time I blow through minutes like the thin white lines they are - Spinning like my ceiling fan I wait for the lows to kick in The way you leave me, when I keep breathing - It's something about the way It's something about The way you leave, me when I keep breathing - (Yeah) It's something about the way It's something about the way It's something about the way (It's something about the) I'll stay awake scrolling through The pics from nights I wasted up with you Sit on the couch You're running your mouth I think I've had enough So I medicate while I contemplate If I am worth my love I used to be an independent - (Oh) I told you I would find my way back home Miss me on those late-night drives I'm lost in the playlists I liked Take me through my wasted time I blow through minutes like the thin white lines they are - Spinning like my ceiling fan I wait for the lows to kick in The way you leave me, when I keep breathing - It's something about the way It's something about The way you leave, me when I keep breathing - It's something about the way It's something about the way It's something about the way It's something about the -

Had a part of me missing, but said I was okay I was searching for love, I was walking the wrong way Never opened my eyes, I was glad to your grace I gave up after losing the games that they all play But you, you're breaking every rule I thought I knew Now I got a hand to hold Don't ever let me, ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let you go I thought loving myself it was out of the question Then you came in my life, and you gave me direction You took all of my flaws, and you made them a blessing I thought loving myself it was out of the question But you, you're breaking every rule I thought I knew Now I got a hand to hold Don't ever let me, ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let me, ever let you go Don't ever let me, ever let you go

I met him one day in the Rockies Where the night air tasted like wine The winter was hard and had me starving When the two of them found me in time Then one night I crashed north of Reno I'd been on the road too long Then I woke to the warmth of her fire And the sweet welcome home of his song It was the California Kid and Reemo Lending me a helping hand It was the California Kid and Reemo Teaching me to love And teaching me to live off the land I thanked them and headed for Oregon The trees were the walls of my home But the rain soaked my bones every morning And the chill made me feel more alone Just when I thought I should end it The world didn't need men like me My mind heard the song of my two friends And the sun started shining on me It was the California Kid and Reemo Lending me a helping hand It was the California Kid and Reemo Teaching me to love And teaching me to live off the land It was the California Kid and Reemo Lending me a helping hand It was the California Kid and Reemo Teaching me to love And teaching me to live off the land It was the California Kid and Reemo Lending me a helping hand It was the California Kid and Reemo Teaching me to love And teaching me to live off the land
