Three Cords - Haunts Me Lyrics

I wake up in the mornin' see this life that I got
I feed my kids and kiss my wife and then I head to my job
But there's a problem, I don't deserve all this
I got survivor's remorse my friends are dead in their sins
And since, we were kids man it's been like that
Even though you've fallen down I hold you up with these tracks
Like Brian, man I'll never forget you
I'll keep you will alive with my pencil and with my life I'll avenge you
Why did I get a rescue and you were left there to die
I go outside and bang my chest and I look at the sky
Our life is a story and we hope it ends later
But it's startin' to rain and it's written on paper
We disappearin' like vapors but we remember the days
When we were young we didn't care we went outside and we played
And our moms would come sit and laugh and be entertained
Then the sun would set and Father Time turns the page
Fear, regret, distraught and it taunts me
Here I am and you're not and it haunts me
And it haunts me
So we grew older and all of us changed
But my memory's so thick it's like a part of me stayed
And it's happening right now as I'm writing this page
A young me can't leave, he's stuck at the gate
Like Field of Dreams not everybody can see
My old team and we're stuck here until we're redeemed
But instead of playing baseball we play in the streets
I set foot in this world when I'm falling asleep
I'm in deep and I weep as it's up to my neck
Bad memories flood me with every step
I hear my friends call my name from in the abyss
And their hands reaching for me as they struggle to swim
Then a kid starts singing lullabies somewhere far in the distance
I wake up full of sweat I can't handle these visits
I'm haunted by decisions and company that I kept
But I'm promised that Jesus will come for me when I'm dead
Fear, regret, distraught and it taunts me
Here I am and you're not and it haunts me
And it haunts me
Grief, remorse, I'm caught
And it wants me, to remain
Undone, broken
And undeserving
Here I am and you're not and it haunts me
Here I am and you're not and it haunts me
Yea it haunts me
Oh it haunts me
