Lyrics

Key:
(N)-Narrator
(F)-Father
(M)-Mother
(C)-Child
Intro(N)
This is his war
But they fight it
This isn't love
But they keep on trying for him
This is his war
There's no changing
That when his fire burns
It burns them too
Poured the gas
And watched it all
Verse 1(M)
Another lie
Another sleepless night
I question why
I even try
I even try
I flashback to how it was before
So when I feel like I am letting go
I won't
I have faith he's coming home
Chorus 1(N)
They're losing track
Of all they've ever known
He's letting go
Of the man that they once knew
So then he'll drink it in
Drink it in
He can't let
Himself think again
Think again
They still wait
For the man that disappeared
Interlude
(F)My mind is clouded and I have to numb
(M)When things get hard you don't have to run
(F)You don't understand, you'll never see
This agony is all I'll bleed
Soft Transition(N)
He drinks
To numb the pain
And he screams
"I wasn't made for this"
Breakdown(F)
My thoughts are burning
Stomach turning
Searing through my chest
Why are you yelling?
Blood is pumping
And I'm seeing red
It's your fault I'm feeling down down down
Pick my poison
Drown you out
Verse 2(M)
I was waiting for someone else
And I need the man that you were back then
Your feelings are dangerous
But I
Know
That I was losing myself again
And it's times like these I can't
Remember why I shouldn't leave
Chorus 2(N)
They're losing track
Of all they've ever known
He's letting go
Of the man that they once knew
So then he'll drink it in
Drink it in
He can't let
Himself think again
Think again
They still wait
For the man that disappeared
Verse 3 (C)
You broke me down
Just to build yourself up
Why don't you see me?
You hit the ground
Just to hear the sound
Of angels singing
I cannot take another night in your hell
You've burnt down all that you have built
They always said you were so damn great
But I don't see it
Soft Bridge(N)
He said "Dance with me"
"Dance and you will see"
He just wanted a chance but he lost that
She is older now
She won't hear him out
She can't give more to him
Than she has
(N)So he begs
Big Bridge(F)
Please don't leave
I can't do this alone
How can you move along
And just
Forget me
I can't start to dismiss
All these years
Just stay
Outro(M)
I'm sorry, I can't
