Wild Turkey

Late at night when I feel alone

I cry in darkness and scream into the unknown

'Cause she's never coming back

No, she's never coming back

Body in water for days and days

Hopes for a safe return, my hope's in vain

'Cause she's never coming back

No, she's never coming back

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care

Stayed numb for years to escape despair

When your soul dies, you just can't hide it

Everyone can tell

Oh, Lord, will I ever feel right again?

Tried so hard to be an automaton

Body of steel and wire circuits for my backbone

'Cause she's never coming back

No, she's never coming back

Wild turkey in the car seat

The bottle's empty, I hope it gave her some relief

'Cause she's never coming back

No, she's never coming back

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care

Stayed numb for years to escape despair

When your soul dies, you just can't hide it

Everyone can tell

Oh, Lord, will I ever feel—

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care

Stayed numb for years to escape despair

When your soul dies, you just can't hide it

Everyone can tell

Oh, Lord, will I ever feel, will I ever feel

Right again?
