Lyrics

[00:11.99] Driving by those trucker stops
[00:14.89] The cheap motels made of concrete rocks
[00:17.63] With a hole inside your chest
[00:20.26] The size of a city block
[00:23.91] And I remember the day
[00:25.28] When you said you weren't afraid to die
[00:29.28] I don't think your brave for it
[00:31.94] I just think your more afraid of being alive
[02:26.21][01:47.09][00:39.23] If I had the medicine
[02:29.10][01:49.94][00:42.50] I'd give you the medicine
[02:32.21][01:53.25][00:45.77] Cause I miss you son
[02:34.87][01:56.17][00:48.73] I'd bring you back home if I was the one
[02:38.40][01:59.42][00:51.53] But it's four and ten
[02:41.06][02:01.94][00:54.60] In the belly of the four AM
[02:44.34][02:05.10][00:57.48] And your staring down the weekend
[02:47.14][02:08.20][01:00.77] To silence the pain
[02:49.65][02:10.97][01:03.61] And I'm wide awake
[02:52.00][02:13.05][01:05.60] And there's blood on the promenade
[01:19.40] Here's to waking up with that stone between your ribs
[01:23.72] And you're lying down again
[01:26.68] You just pretend you don't know what it is
[01:31.42] When everyone around you says that you're not the one to blame for it
[01:35.61] But you're the only one feeling the pain for it
[01:39.16] So you're gonna take matters into your own hands
