Seeing the Forest - Adiescar Chase

I find it hard to shed a tear You brought it all on yourself my dear Wrong, yes I may be Don't leave a light on for me 'Cause I ain't comin' home It hurts me baby to be alone Yes, it hurts me baby A hundred years will never ease Hearing things I won't believe I saw it with my own two eyes All the pain that I can't hide And this pain starts in my heart And this love tears us apart You won't find me bent down on my knees Ain't bendin' over backwards baby Not to please 'Cause I'm seeing things for the first time I'm seeing things for the first time, oh yeah I'm seeing things for the first time In my life, in my life I used to dream Of better days that never came Sorry ain't nothin' to me I'm gone and that's the way it must be So please I've done my time Lovin' you is such a crime You won't fine me down on, on my knees Won't fine me over backwards baby Just to please 'Cause I'm seeing things for the first time I"m seeing things for the first time Seeing things for the first time Oh I'm seeing things for the first time Yeah, seeing things for the first time I'm seeing things for the first time Yeah, I'm seeing things for the first time In my life, in my life

It's 3 o'clock at the Triple Rock, another round of watching Paddy talk It's where you wanna get snowed in when you get Snowed in, outside it's 10 below, is it day or night, we don't care or know What we know is that we don't wanna be Anywhere but here, please don't make us leave When in Minnesota and you got a drinking quota I'm seeing double at the Triple Rock, we're still here watching Paddy talk Then undress, then get out the duct tape The one question still remains, how much more art can we take? I'll let you know when the medication wears off I'm a religious drunk and this is where I pray The church of alcoholics can't break up the congregation Give us air to breathe, through carbonation We are at liquor church, genuflecting on barstools We're praying that the taps will keep the holy water flowing Key kicks of communion, then a long night of confessions Coming home afternoon seems to raise a lot of questions When in Minnesota and you got a drinking quota

We woke up on the floor With our clothes scattered by the door Let's mix a couple drinks Until our heads stop feeling sore No matter how hard we try We end up where we were before Round and round we go Like the bull and matador Let's recollect the year That we spent together here What is it we fear When we hardly left the bed And then time pulled us apart Or were we doomed right from the start There's troubles in my heart All I see is red We're dizzy from the spin Yeah the fan on the ceiling She carries a whisper Of what we might have been Oh I know we smell Just like cigarettes and gin But baby I could run for days If I'm chasing this feeling Let's recollect the year That we spent together here I wonder what we feared When we hardly left the bed Yeah then time pulled us apart Or were we doomed right from the start There's troubles in my heart All I see is red It's red I can't get you out my head And I still smell you in my bed Yeah I tell you baby I'm seeing red
