lyrics

Haven't I bled enough for you
Come back before I dry out
I've saved up for the coming months
But breathing hard won't let it last
Winter is coming so bring a coat
Cause outside's not a pretty place
And even with the softest skin
The roughest winds will take their toll

Why does this winter feel so cold

I said its an arduous place
But it's a world where the sun will warm my face
Let the southern air fill up my lungs
The breath of brand new start begun
A walk of easy times and friends
A place where I can start again
Running circles never gonna get you there
Dysfunction is happier unaware

I cant remember where i was
Years ago or years from now
How can I think of you the same
When you said it won't work out
My thoughts are drowning out these words
With hopeless shouts to empty rooms
When walls have nothing left to say
Will I find the strength to stand again

Don't ever tell me it's just a phase
I will be a better person in seven days
I'll count them down till the time has come
Where you're out of my life, dead and gone
And if it isn't purple haze
I'll sober up in seven days
You left a man to find his own
And I found that you are not my home

(I'm just trying to let go
But I can't talk about it)
