Restless Mind

It’s 2 a.m., the TV’s on
Am I alright? Hell, I don’t know
It’s getting harder to be myself
Every dim lit corner of this house
As cold as you when you walked out
And said I didn’t know how to love

I pray at night to get relief
In a blood-stained Bible that I read
Besides the nights that I do drink
To see you home is my dying wish
But that’s just something God can’t fix
There’s no good days on this side of hell

You said watch the way that you light that wick
‘Cause the field’s getting dryer and it burns up quick
Like the way your restless mind
Lets in every demon when you don’t know why
When the walls close in
And I’m lost in all my sin
If Heaven lets me in
Will I see your face again?

I can’t be your angel all the time
Only God knows that I’ve tried
Can’t fix every broken part of you
You spent so much time just living in the dark
And I hope you know that wherever you are
There’s two paths you can take

And I said watch the way that you light that wick
‘Cause the field’s getting dryer and it burns up quick
Like the way your restless mind
Lets in every demon when you don’t know why
When the walls close in
And I’m lost in all my sin
If Heaven lets me in
Will I see your face again?

You spent so much time just living in the dark
And I hope you know that wherever you are
We spent so much time just living in the dark
And I hope you know that wherever we are
There’s two paths you can take

And you said watch the way that you light that wick
‘Cause the field’s getting dryer and it burns up quick
Like the way your restless mind
Lets in every demon when you don’t know why
When the walls close in
When the walls close in
And I’m lost in all my sin
And I’m lost in all my sin
If Heaven lets me in
Will I see your face again?
