Only a Year or So... Songtext

von 36 Crazyfists

I want you to come home;
I'm tired of being alone.
And it's making me sick not knowing if you're safe and alright.
The kids are growing up so fast
And knowing you're missing them
And they're missing you,
Has given me a pain so deep inside
Stemming from this world and this war.
Lately I feel like I've been becoming someone else,
Someone I don't recognize, and someone I don't even like.
I need you here to help me remember what it's like to truly be alive.
Everyday I try my best to not get completely overwhelmed with you being gone.
Please tell me how to be strong, because
Everyday I'm so worried I could lose you.
There are so many things going on,
So many things I want to share with you.
I'm selfish for wanting you home, I know. But I really can't help it, I need you,
We need you,I love you completely,
I just want you to come home.

Only a year or so they say,
You won't miss out on anything.
Sleep inside this bed,
(I just want you to come home.)
Where no one's realy dead

I lay at night thinking of you and the kids,
Trying to put this into perspective and understand this world.
So much has happened in my life and I can't seem to put a finger on who I am.
And these are the times I wonder what I was thinking,
I mean what the hell was I thinking?
Everyone says we're heroes but I feel like I've abandoned you.
I can feel the blood racing through my body and know that
I'm growing distant from the world.

Only a year or so they say,
You won't miss out on anything.
Sleep inside this bed,
(I know that I'm growing distant from the world.)
Where no one's realy dead

The wait is over, stuck inside this mess.
Dying alone you're all on your own.
Praying to get out alive...
