Living Proof

Another evening falls
Moonlight starts to drape
Taking to these city streets
She searches for escape
Daddy's little girl
He never got to know
As with every day that's passed
The void begins to grow
and I'm sorry I'm the one who let her down
I'm so sorry I'm the one who never cared to hang around
Now you're stuck here living proof
Tragedy is real
Swim in seas of millions
Couldn't care less how you feel
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Went out friday night
Never to return
You are all sound sleeping as
The fire starts to burn
Huddled in a room
No one says a thing
Seven pairs of crying eyes
Beg that phone to ring
and I'm sorry I'm the one who let him go
I'm so sorry I'm the one who took the wheel and lost contro
Now you're stuck here living proof
Tragedy is real
Swim in seas of millions
Couldn't care less how you feel
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
(Bridge)
(Verse 3)
Home on tuesday night
Everything seems fine
Suddenly there's pain
She dons a robe and gets in line
Been a hundred days
What a brilliant fight
As the clock strikes 4am
She walks into the light
and I'm sorry there was nothing we could do
I'm so sorry I'm the one who's left here crying over you
Now you're stuck here living proof
Tragedy is real
Swim in seas of millions
Couldn't care less how you feel
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on
Somehow life goes on

We're Gonna Get Through
04:56

Keep on keeping on back where everyone can tell
Their prying eyes know so well
A man that's being put through hell
Back home sit all alone somebody waits for me
Not like it used to be
We'd be missing each desperately
Further we fall each day growing older
Into the hole we dig through the week
I am a cold and wind beaten soldier
Tired and in too deep
Back home ex on the phone she hadn't seen in years
An option to disappear
Yeah she's thinking bout leaving here
Hopes somehow maybe the babies don't have to know
Watch as they push and pull
Cry out momma please don't go
Further we fall each day growing older
Into the hole we dig through the week
I am a cold and wind beaten soldier
Tired and in too deep
Girl don't you know that you need me
I think you know I need you too
We're gonna get through
Darling don't you know I still love you
I think you know you love me too
We're gonna get through
Through stormy skies the future lies in the palm of your own hand
At times you learn your life won't turn out quite the way you planned, no
Honestly a part of me has begun to understand
We're gonna get through this phase
Though it gets so hard some days
Further we fall each day growing older
Into the hole we dig through the week
I am a cold and wind beaten soldier
Tired and in too deep
Girl don't you know that you need me
I think you know I need you too
We're gonna get through
Darling don't you know I still love you
I think you know you love me too
We're gonna get through
We're gonna get through
We're gonna get through
We're gonna get through

I'm Already Over You
03:33

You, come home in what feels like forever, I
Catch you sporting raised tail-feathers, I
Ain’t stupid I can put four together
There’s something going on in here
You act like we don’t have trouble, I
Take pleasure in bursting your bubble, I
Know exactly where you been crossing double
The lines have been drawn crystal clear
How could you do me so wrong? How could you do me so wrong?
So think about
All of the ways I have slaved for you
The home that I made for you
Well, I ain’t coming home again
This time tomorrow I will be gone
You can cry all you want
Cause I’m already over you
You say that you don’t have another, You
Tell me I’m your one only lover, Well,
I did we some work undercover and
Found out what you've done and where
Found fault with the things that you’ve said to me
I take salt with the sh*t that you fed to me
By now, you are already dead to me, dead to me, dead to me, dead to me
How could you do me so wrong? How could you do me so wrong?
So think about
All of the ways I have slaved for you
The home that I made for you
Well, I ain’t coming home again
This time tomorrow I will be gone
You can cry all you want
Cause I’m already over you
It made its way about town
That you’ve been fooling around
Then made its way back to me
Oh oh oh oh
How could you be so unkind
How could I be so blind
To not have seen this immediately
So think about
All of the ways I have slaved for you
The home that I made for you
Well, I ain’t coming home again
This time tomorrow I will be gone
You can cry all you want
Cause I’m already over you

Sunlight in the Rain

I feel I should let you know
Maybe you've met her so
I'll do my best to fill you in
Lately its not so bright
The girl who lights up my life
Finding a new way to begin
I've tried to tell her everything's gonna be alright
We both know it's gonna take some more time
If I alone could write
A song to find the sunlight in the rain
Comforting and calm all the while
If I alone could write
A song to break the daylight through the pain
Tried as it is true, as all the love shines through when she smiles
Seemingly there's no cure
Tears that begin to pour
Soon as the season starts to show
I'll take her out one night
To beautiful Brooklyn Heights
Holiday lights are all aglow
I've done my best to try and make her believe again
I wish that there was more I could do
If I alone could write
A song to find the sunlight in the rain
Comforting and calm all the while
If I alone could write
A song to break the daylight through the pain
Tried as it is true, as all the love shines through when she smiles
I would do anything for her
I would do anything for her
Gradually time heals all
Snow that begins to fall
Covering all we start anew

I will fall
That I know
Say you don't feel the same
And I will go
I have been sitting here
You have told
Me of your reasons why
And I'm not sold
I am so lost in what you believe
I am so lost in what you believe
With these eyes
All made clear
Why we still find ourselves
Right back here
I see you terrified
Love so new
Tell me you have with him
All we do
I am so lost in what you believe
I am so lost in what you believe
And I would love to be the one to find
The way to help you to
Unlock the chains to your own mind
But I have said enough
You will fall
To what you know
Say you don't want to be with me
And I will go
I may have out of fear
Come on too strong
But I would not be standing here
If I was wrong
I am so lost in what you believe
I am so lost in what you believe
And I would love to be the one to find
The way to help you to
Unlock the chains to your own mind
But I have said
I have said
You got me lost in
All your excuses
You are not crazy
No you are not crazy
We are all alone
You can be open
You can be open
You can let me in
And I would love to be the one to find
The way to help you to
Unlock the chains to your own mind
But I have said
I have said
I have said enough
