Twenty-two years have gone and passed me by and I still feel like I'm not doin' things right and I know, I'm slowly losing hope.
I don't mean to scare you but don't leave your lights on for me tonight. I won't be making it home until I'm making things right.
(You know me, all too well. You know me better than I know myself.)
Cause' every time I get my feet on the ground. The tide grows just a little bit stronger, it carries me back out. And as I feel myself sinking under the weight of all the pressure. I'm calling out your name.
I knew things wouldn't be easy but I never thought they would be so hard; just to keep everything together and keep it all from falling apart. Please tell me things get better, cause' I can't keep wasting my time. With each day that's moving forward I'm falling farther behind.
Things seem so far away, so out of reach, so incomplete. But if you want it then you got it, it's a matter of time before I get it all together and take back what's mine.
I don't mean to scare you but don't leave the lights on for me tonight. I won't be making it home until I'm making things right.

This time it's gone too far to hang my head again, depend on all my dead end friend, I'm calling out your name.
The tide's rolling in, I'm losing ground again. The tide's rolling in, I'm losing ground again. (I'm calling out your name)
