Not Coming Home
I'm taking my time 'cause it's the only thing I really can call my own
I'm staring at a picture of me and a girl that I used to know
Yeah, we were intertwined, two pieces of fabric sewn into one
But now torn apart, just frail threads and fragments of broken hearts
She's out of my sight but still on my mind
It's gonna happen, keep the faith, any day now
How many times can I lie to myself?
It's gonna happen, keep the faith, any day now
How many times can I lie to myself and still believe?
'Cause you and I both know you're not coming home
I'm holding my breath 'cause God only gave me so many
Breathing in and out seemed easier when you were with me
And what's left of me? What is left of me
But a cold lifeless body and a heart that's not beating anymore
It's gonna happen, keep the faith, any day now
How many times can I lie to myself?
It's gonna happen, keep the faith, any day now
How many times can I lie to myself and still believe?
'Cause you and I both know, yeah
You and I both know
That you're not coming home
You're not coming home
You're not coming home (What is left of me, what is left of me?)
You're not coming home (What is left of me, what is left of me?)
You're out of my sight but still on my mind
It's gonna happen, keep the faith, any day now
It's gonna happen, keep the faith, any day now
It's gonna happen, keep the faith, any day now
How many times can I lie to myself and still believe?
'Cause you and I both know, yeah
You and I both know
That you're not coming home
