Still Need You Around (Lost Without You)

It's times like these where I lose myself
in the stories my old man would tell
about life, true love, and war
the kind of war where you beat yourself.
Cause now I've got this stomach pain,
the kind of pain that gets worse
when the rain hits hard
like my fist
when I try to explain to the wall this mess I'm in.

See, I'm tired now and my mind won't quit
since I got the news that you were sick
I thought of life, of time, and death
If I could only use my breath
I'd breathe my life into your lungs
With love and strength I have faith I will lift you up
It's a lesson learned
As we move on I still need you around
I'd be lost without you
I'm not sure I could face this world on my own

No, I don't want to go on alone
No, I don't want to go on alone
I don't want to go

I'm terrified that this fear exists
and I'm scared I'll come to terms with it
but that's life
You are what you leave
Like the simple lessons my dad taught me
I know we all grow old and die
and make our place in another life
I'm glad
that there's stIll time
to let you know

I stIll need you around
I'd be lost without you
I'm not sure I could face this world on my own

No, I don't want to go on alone
No, I don't want to go on alone
I don't want to go

So live it up, live it up
Cause you'll never know, never know
Time is always running
It will always guide you home

I've been up for the past few nights
worried sick but I'll be alright,
because in death there's a whole new life
where you'll be waiting for me.

I stIll need you around
I'd be lost without you
I'm not sure I could face this world on my own

No, I don't want to go on alone
No, I don't want to go on alone
No, I don't want to go on alone
