Lonely Haze

Drinking down that death
Searching for the answers
Cigarette in the ashtray
Burnt down to the filter
Cloudy eyes so full of light
A want for peace but none in sight
Lay your head down and close your eyes
The couch is a good place to rest a while
Leave a whisper in the night
Let them know that you will be alright
A pint of whiskey in the barrel
That's a loaded gun for sure
I'll tip it back into my mouth
Pull the trigger like before
And then I'll feel that old sensation
Watch the hours turn to days
No one cares, no one listens
That's a life in a lonely haze
Waiting on tomorrows shine
The sun over mountain peaks
Smoke in the distance
Words that we'll never speak.
Shards of hope come raining down
There's too much life lost for this town
These choices they drive you mad
Stealing the best of what we had
Looking deep into your eyes
The wells of your pain reflecting in mine

Home

I feel at home when I'm forced to run
I feel at home when I come undone
Nobody said that this would end easy
Nobody said that I would find myself
I try and try
But I set myself back
Sunk in my pride
The good can't shine
Through the bad in these eyes
Everything's so fucked up in my mind
I've been up and down
Back and forth
High and low from cloud to earth
Nothing to validate self worth
A drifter in search of his next perch
Seasons change like the wind at night
Carry my soul to a better life
Chasing the sun into the night
I feel at home under the starry sky

Goodnight

Heading north on 95
Nothing but the dim moonlight
Drive until the sun would rise
Just to get back home
Stay up every single night
Too many beers and stupid fights
Card games, hell rides, singing to the sky
Man, those were the nights I'll miss the most.
And I stop to think about where we'd be
If you were still here with me
Through all the pain
I'll find a way
But my heart still screams
I'm stuck here by myself
Because you left too soon
Crying out into the night
You left too soon
All I wanted was to say goodnight
Wherever you went I was close behind
I watched your back and you watched mine
Showed me what it meant to fall
Just to rise through it all
You always stood so tall
Now I'm afraid to fall asleep
Because I know I'll wake with tears on my face
But I sure as hell would feel at ease
If I could just hear you say
Everything's going to be alright
But you left too soon
Crying out into the night
You left too soon
All I wanted was to say goodnight
Just know our paths will cross again
And I'll hear you say "Where the hell you been?"
We both said together ‘til the end
And I'll keep your word
My brother, my best friend
It's never goodbye, just goodnight for now
I just wanted to say goodnight
All I wanted was to say goodnight
