I've been terrified since you walked out the door

And these were not the lies I'd told you once before

And this is not the end it's still an outside bet

I'm not taking off my wedding ring just yet.

And it's years since I took stock of it

Seems that it's not come to much

This is everything I ever owned

Collapsed into the car.

I've been terrified for far too fucking long

What is that thing I lack that makes you so damn strong

Your letter in my hands is rolled into a ball

With drunken comedy is thrown hard at the wall.

And it's years since I took stock of it

Seems that it's not come to much

This is everything I ever owned

Collapsed into the car.

And the stitches are unravelling

And the seams have all but burst

Maybe all my years of travelling

Have quenched a worn out thirst.

These years have flown by

And these hands are shaking

And I have no notion

Of what happens next.

And there's a kind of freedom

When I think of it

But then the panic quickens

And there is no solace.
