moments before dawn
The phone rings, help to bring me back like a gunshot That may have hurt less Than the words I caught in the chest as your body rot I try to catch you but I keep my heart locked  I fall through the floor Hell can hurt like this  All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays) Out the way I see it in my head The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering) No funeral for what it could have been  Paralyzed again, engaged on the auto pilot We can fight it but it's hard to hide it Trying to deny the loss Trying to hide the fact that I haven't slept for days (I haven't slept for days) And you won't stop crying (and you won't stop crying) These moments before dawn I'd rather be dying  I fall through the floor Hell can hurt like this  All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays) Out the way I see it in my head The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering) No funeral for what it could have been  All the things I'll never say, the way it never plays (never plays) Out the way I see it in my head The pain, the way it haunts me lingering for days (lingering) No funeral for what it could have been  I haven't slept for days And you won't stop crying These moments before dawn Feel just like dying But what do I know? I'm still here, broken and alone with my fears
