Just Wait And See

It's already dark and you already know
But you try to pretend that you won't go
You say that you're just out for a drive
But your eyes betray what you feel inside
Just one time, just one drink
You'll be fine just wait and see
It's way past two and if I know you
You're still there and you're not through

You will die alone
Because you are scared to show

Any emotion of any sort
In any context of any importance
You drown it out every night
And work up a smile and act like everything is alright

The drinks build up and so do walls
That block him out and keep him small
It's time to go your stomach agrees
But you search for a reason to search for you keys
Headlights blur on a wavering street
But you'll be fine just wait and see
Your temples ache along with your heart
Your true friends care where you are

You will die alone
Because you are scared to show

Any emotion of any sort
In any context of any importance
You drown it out every night
And work up a smile and act like everything is alright
