Where I Don't Have You

I was thinking of you the other night with my girlfriend and I didn't know how to stop
I was breathing your name but disguising my lies in a fake loss of breath now on the top
As fire caught behind her hazel eyes I was trapped in knowing that I am seeing brown
And if lust is truly of the worst sins in God's eyes then just know honey I am going down

Down where the stairs don't end until you reach the red door to the darkest bar
Down where the drinks cost a soul and only God's nemesis even knows where you are
Down where I don't have you
Down where I don't have you

I heard your cries when she cried begging and pleading his name
While screaming out for more
I swear I felt your dark skin through her hands
When I had her pinned up against that door
And if my love wasn't enough to keep you in my bed
Then why should I not be out looking for someone new?
And when you think of me next time just know my life has gotten so dark
That I'll be summoned off to

Down where the drinks are too strong and the drugs are too rough
And there's never a last call
Down where the whores have no teeth and they push your face hard up against the wall
Down where I don't have you
Down where I don't have you

Two a.m. and I'm coming out of a bar holding my guitar on a night when angels cry
As the wind howls through my light jacket I don't give a shit if I even live or die
I swear I saw you walk on by under the arm of some guy in a suit
And tie looks like you're doing well
We locked eyes for a moment or two and my minds on you
While I stumble home to a living Hell

Down where the stairs don't end until you reach the red door to the darkest bar
Down where I don't have you
Down where the drinks cost a soul and only God's nemesis even knows where you are
Down where I don't have you
Down where the drinks are too strong
And the drugs are too rough and there's never a last call
Down where I don't have you
Down where the whores have no teeth and they push your face hard up against the wall
Down where I don't have you
Down where I don't have you
Down where I don't have you
