Storm

What once was calm is now all storm

It left its mark on me

It left me gasping for breath

A uniform of desperate pleas

And now I can't pretend to think

That being alone is virtuous

Because it hurts deep in my hands

In places where they touched with yours

I'm trying to clear my head

I feel the empty space

How large a room is there

Without you in it

How large a room is there

Without you in it

I'm a jealous guy

Always quick to trigger

Any little sign

I could make it bigger

Hold this heart of mine

Holes are part of business

When you're in the line

Of fire in the winter

You just brought the silencer and pistol

To the kitchen table

When we sat for dinner

You placed it in my hand

You watched me pull it

Solitary bullet

Made me look like a killer

Damn my pride

Damn my pride

Damn my pride

You know it's no use praying

To this clouded mirror

If the deed is small

Then I can't look no bigger

I've been tryna paint

Myself a tragic figure

It's not working right

Even with all this liquor

It's not working right

Because the truth is missing

Damn my pride

Damn my pride

Damn my pride

I'm just a failure inside
