Live Without

You don't tell me we don't talk no more
Feels like a lifetime on an endless chore
I had it coming
I could tell by the guilt that she wore
If there were noises late at night coming from
My door
You won't be knockin' to that sound no more
We have a chance and a plan to restore
You scraped this body down to its core
You had me hearing voices that were loud
As a war
You were the face that would come tumblin'
Down with it all
We took a corner 'round an unknown ridge
A conversation by the unused bridge
You had no face at all
I had to dig a hole or swim
And now I just won't fight
I aint gonna battle no more
I have tried to weather that storm
Now its calm and it's clear
But it's never gone
Did you ever have a moment of doubt
I'm living here alone and this is still a crowd
I'll never work you out
How can I forgive, now I have to live without
I was looking back at every face in the street
Screaming at the shadows with a howl of
Defeat
I admit I had some trouble
Keeping my feelings discreet
And now the memory I keep well it's not one
I've shown
It creeps like a fever and it bleeds on its own
And what has died here may sleep
Better if its left alone
And now I just wont fight
I aint gonna battle no more
No I just wont fight
I aint gonna battle no more
I have tried to weather that storm
Now its calm and it'd clear
But it's never gone
