full stop

My heart’s been aching since I poured it out

It echoes in me like an empty well

And in the dark a voice is calling out

And suddenly, I recognize myself

Why do I get the feeling?

I’m bleeding out for everyone else

This is where I leave you

You feel tired, me too

But darlin’ I can’t stay

It’s not my debt to pay

This is where I move on

Tell ‘em all I’m long gone

Sell everything I have

Cause I’m not comin’ back

This is where I ride off

Leave you with a full-stop

I was armed and ready at first light

Forced to be the saviour of the town

Got wounded fighting someone else’s fight

And left to die alone there on the ground

It’s history repeating

I’m bleeding out for everyone else

This is where I leave you

You feel tired, me too

But darlin’ I can’t stay

It’s not my debt to pay

This is where I move on

Tell ‘em all I’m long gone

Sell everything I have

Cause I’m not comin’ back

This is where I ride off

Leave you with a full-stop
