Been A Long Time

Been a long time since I picked up the phone

But tonight, the demons have come back home

And damn, I’m not feeling all that strong

And I really don’t know if I want you to say hello

My hands are shaking at what you’ll be thinking

First thing you’ll ask is have I been drinking

I’m about to hang up when it starts ringing

You pick up and I say I’m sorry, I don’t know

And you say it’s okay, tell me what’s on your mind

And we sit in silence as the words are too hard to find

And I ask, do you ever wish we could hit rewind?

Before there was a me and you, before the scars

Damn, I was happy before it all got messed up

I was okay before we fell in love

And I always believed I was enough

Now I can’t unbreak my heart

And I know there’s nothing you can say

I’m trying to get through this day

Trying to believe something good will come my way

And I’m sorry I picked up the phone

Just feeling like the darkness has taken over the light

And it’s so hard to keep on fighting but I fight

And I really don’t know why I called you tonight

Guess I was hoping to feel a little less alone
