Fade Away

Waking up at 3am

To some shadows in an empty bed

That was meant to be so full

But the emptiness is cold

I didn't mean to fall asleep

It was the alcohol and nicotine

That took you from my mind

'Cause I can never get things right

They took you from my mind

'Cause I never get things right

Walking home alone again

With nothing but your innocence

To keep you warm tonight

It was hard to see the light

Behind the wheel so drunk

He couldn't even comprehend

How much he fucked things up

How much he fucked this up

And now I'm all messed up

You keep running through my head

With all those things I left unsaid

Is it too late to say you're gone?

Could you stay another night

So we could have a last goodbye

Or maybe even just go home?

Now I'm left to sit here waiting

Your t-shirt's drenched but it's not raining

And the footsteps walking by are always covered in red

The doctor says, "Oh, son be patient

We're doing all we can to save her"

But the waiting room's as cold as the metal

Running through your chest

You keep running through my head

With all those things I left unsaid

Is it too late to say you're gone?

Could you stay another night

So we could have a last goodbye

Or maybe even just go home?

But you won't come home

But you won't come home

But you won't come home

But you won't come home

Would you please come home?
