i know that it burns

like poison in the pill

sing me to sleep

echoes in the hills

can't hear a word

can't hear my broken will



the world through a windshield

is callous and cheap

i toss and i turn

but i can't get to sleep

counting the hours

the days that turn into weeks



i've been wrong, but it's alright

and there've been long and lonely nights

i've been lost, but i found you

turn out the light

i'll stay if you want me to



somehow my time got out of my hands

i just want to stop

the master commands

i'm telling you the truth

it won't be this way again



a long ways away but you're never alone

you look at the sky over our home

i'll be around

a few more miles to go



i've been wrong, but it's alright

there've been long and lonely nights

i was lost 'til i found you

turn off the light

i'll stay if you want me to



you don't have to say it

you don't have to speak

i've been away, worried and weak

don't say a word



i've been wrong, but it's alright

there've been long and lonely nights

i was lost 'til i found you

turn out the light

i'll stay if you want me to
