I'll Be a Mess Without You

You watch that clock tick away
In the home that you have made
It's been several years the same without change
No, it's no good saving face
Get up out of your favorite hiding place, your head
Oh no, no it's never too late to grow

And through this awful weather
It seems unlikely but it will get better

So I'm hoping that you'll pull through
Do what you need to do
I'll be a mess without you
I'll keep writing all these letters home
So you know you are not alone
Tighten your grip and don't let go, don't let go

And suddenly, you realize while you are watching your tv
It's not so bad with company
But it's been a while since you've been seen
And getting out of bed is harder than it seems
When you're on your own
Pick up the phone

And through this awful weather
You spend your nights wishing it would get better

So I'm hoping that you'll pull through
Do what you need to do
I'll be a mess without you
I'll keep writing all these letters home
So you know you are not alone
Tighten your grip and don't let go

I pray to god that you'll be okay
'Cause I'm sick to death with worry when I'm away
And it's been five years now since I left my town
It won't be the same without you around

And I'm hoping that you'll pull through
Do what you need to do
I'll be a mess without you

So I'm hoping that you'll pull through
Do what you need to do
I'll be a mess without you
I'll keep writing all these letters home
So you know you are not alone
Tighten your grip and don't let go, don't let go

I'll be a mess without you
Letters home
Not alone
Don't let go
