Cold, Dark Place

Updated on

There’s a house in the hills with the love that we used to hold
Got memories for miles and miles without a thing to show
Lord, I know it’s my fault that it all went to hell that night
Even though I’m the reason we broke, I still take your side

Maybe I had to let you go
Lose it all and learn a little late
Maybe leaving you was a one-way, bad-bet ticket to a cold, dark place
The thought of you is eating at my bones, every road leads to your face
Maybe leaving you was a one-way, bad-bet ticket to a cold, dark place

It’s a different kind of quiet when I no longer get your calls
And I know you don’t hear it, but I’ve been screaming your name through these walls
After all, I’ve lost the man I used to be
Took a lot of wrong turns to find the answer looking back at me

Maybe I had to let you go
Lose it all and learn a little late
Maybe leaving you was a one-way, bad-bet ticket to a cold, dark place
The thought of you is eating at my bones, every road leads to your face
Maybe leaving you was a one-way, bad-bet ticket to a cold, dark place
