Close my eyes, block out the world,
let all my pretenses fall away...

I close my eyes and count my mistakes,
I know they outweigh the good...

Dreaming of cool nights
with the sound of soothing waves...

I'm looking for you everywhere,
don't know where you are...

Trying to quietly listen to you
as you tell me what you've been thinking...

Holding his picture close to me
as I hug the pillow close...

Siting on the edge of the river
with my feet hanging over the ledge...

The air is getting colder
with a bite now in the wind...

Every time I try to tell you
just how I feel...

We butcher and kill in the name of god
saying it's his will...

Life is like a story book,
sometimes the pages turn easily...

It's one o'clock in the morning
and I'm sitting here alone...
