Autumn Nights / I Will Heal

Up past sundown
Deep thoughts like waves they toss me round
I think until i drown
Hung on regret
Past lives dont feel departed yet
But I've got work tomorrow
Some things dont stop for sorrow

I'll find a love in December
Something warm to keep me from the cold
She'll be the perfect angel
And I'll break another halo
Cause it wont last through the summer
I guess I tend to run away
When it gets warm
Caught up in the swarm
Im' left with

Autumn nights I spend alone
Run away
And live so far from home
Ain't this the life you wanted
Fast paced no time for love when
All the dreams we used to have
Buried by the rush, the grind, the plan
Sometimes I feel so hollow
Might not be here tomorrow

Why is it hard to be away from
The ones that hurt to be around
I guess I'm sentimental
Brought up so self judgmental
I never thought that I could miss you
But I think about you every day
Now that I'm away
I'm left with

Autumn nights I spend alone
Run away
And live so far from home
Ain't this the life you wanted
Fast paced no time for love when
All the dreams we used to have
Buried by the rush, the grind, the plan
Sometimes I feel so hollow
Might not be here tomorrow
No

Coping and healing are two different things
Ive courted the former and all that it brings
I left home and drank while the smoke filled my lungs
And spent so many nights with strangers coming undone
Hospitals and counselors could never give me hope
And a string of bad encounters with salesmen left me broke
While I broke the heart of anyone who got too close
Still reeling from pain of things I buried deep to try to cope

But I found hope when I travelled to the river with my friends
And on Christmas, when I saw my brother grown I did again
And I realized there might be hope in all of this
I'll recognize my inner strength
It's in my will to conquer this so
I will use my tongue to speak my truth
I will use my fist to fight for you
I will overcome what I thought I couldn't overcome
And I will

I will heal
I will heal
I will
I will
I will heal
I will heal
I will

I have healed before
I can heal again
I can hear your voice
I can be a friend
And I will
I can heal
So i will
Heal
