Lyrics

So who are you
Where’s the man who used to open doors
And hold me till I fell asleep
And where is he
He’s been silent for a while
Has he been swallowed down with the pills and lies

Too many times you’ve been gone too many days
I used to think that love meant I’d always stay

But it’s time for me to go
It’s time for us to say goodbye
The bottle always wins
It’s so hard when you realize
The promises are gone
And I’ve tried everything there is to try
But my love’s not enough
To keep you high

Fifth birthday
She wondered where her daddy was
And the pain she felt
She knew it all too well
You said you’d change
That this would be the real last time
You’d ever let us down
Same old storyline

The scars you left will never go away
I used to think that love meant I’d always stay

But it’s time for me to go
It’s time for us to say goodbye
The bottle always wins
It’s so hard when you realize
it’s time for me to go
It’s time for us to say goodbye
I hope someday you’ll find
A better way to live this life
The promises are gone
And I’ve tried everything there is to try
But my love’s not enough
No my love’s not enough
To keep you high
