Lyrics:
Daily doesn’t seem to come up as fast when it’s you I’m haunting, you I’m calling
I need you back in my system
Throw out the things I’d wish I’d known
When every night I lie, hoping you’d come through the door
My life feels wrong without you

I can’t be here lost and abandoned
Nobody asking, I cannot stand by you
There’s days that I go off stranded
Nobody follows, nobody sees what’s true
There’s days that I wanted to be through
And everyday I toss and turn, my life feels wrong without you.

So I took the keys to the lake
I said to god what I said
I know the folk on the road
I know they don’t wanna move today
I wish I could die in the morn
Sometimes it’s hard but you know I’m thankful
I know the folk on the road
I know they die for the lord
Sometimes ya man might go
I don’t believe anymore
I wish I could die in the morn
Sometimes it’s hard but ya know I’m thankful

I was trying to be something wretched
Something I saw on TV
But you were the only one who’d come through calling
You found ways to rescue me
You rescued me.

I can’t be here lost and abandoned
Nobody asking, I cannot stand by you
There’s days that I go off stranded
Nobody follows, nobody sees what’s true
There’s days that I wanted to be through
And everyday I toss and turn, my life feels wrong without you.

So I took the keys to the lake
I said to god what I said
I know the folk on the road
I know they don’t wanna move today
I wish I could die in the morn
Sometimes it’s hard but you know I’m thankful
I know the folk on the road
I know they die for the lord
Sometimes ya man might go
I don’t believe anymore
I wish I could die in the morn
Sometimes it’s hard but ya know I’m thankful
