lyrics

I'm twelve hours from Richmond, waiting on your call
Counting down the moments until you're sick of it all
Bracing for the words, resting on your lips
This sad punchline that we just couldn't skip

You ask for truth and hope that every word is a lie
And regret every chance you've given me
Out on this road it's easy to forget just who we're supposed to be
Yeah, I know that I've forsaken thee...forsaken thee

I'm twelve hours from Richmond, working through the nights
I'm going to try to tell you that I've been living right
Money rolls right into these idle hands
And I've become someone you just can't stand

You ask for truth and hope that every word is a lie
And regret every chance you've given me
Out on this road it's easy to forget just who we're supposed to be
Yeah, I know that I've forsaken thee...forsaken thee

I'm twelve hours from Richmond, my heart is hanging low
Yeah, I've done some things you'll never let go
I rarely go to bed in this room alone
But I'd trade them all to be with you back home

You ask for truth and hope that every word is a lie
And regret every chance you've given me
Out on this road it's easy to forget just who we're supposed to be
Yeah, I know that I've forsaken thee...forsaken thee

I'm twelve hours from Richmond, waiting on your call
Counting down the moments until you're sick of it all
