Sun comes up
I'm counting the days I've got left
I'm counting the time on my hands, watch the days roll by

When I'm gone
Who will be waiting for me to come home?
Who waits for a ghost to come in from the cold, just to haunt you?

Sometimes girl I'm already gone, I've been ready so long
In your heart there's a different man, and I just ain't that strong
I can't win
I can't lose
And everything I do is wrong
One hand clawing at the other hand, trying to hold on

Sun goes down
If I stay too long then I'll just fade away
And if you were smart you would just walk away, don't you cry

When I'm gone
I know for certain the birds will still sing
And I know the clouds will still cry like a child, on my shadow

Sometimes girl I'm already gone, I've been ready so long
In your heart there's a different man, and I just ain't that strong
I can't win
I can't lose
And everything I do is wrong
One hand clawing at the other hand, trying to hold on
