Surviving Emily
Warren Brothers · Other Songs - Warren Brothers
And the tearing down of my old high school
I still think about her
The nation's rising deficit
And my fatal crave for cigarettes
They all make me think about her
CHORUS:
My life's one big catastrophe
So don't expect too much from me
I'm just hanging on, surviving Emily
My t-shirt that she always wore
Her makeup in the bathroom drawer
I can't get away from her
Her perfume on my pillowcase
When I close my eyes,
I always see her face
Sometimes I wish I were blind
CHORUS
Emily can you hear me
I'm callin' out your name
Rescue me from these lonely days and sleepless nights
They're driving me insane
I tried to stop this endless search
Even started going back to church
But I still feel the same
and my friends all say I'm doing fine
It's just gonna take a little time
Yeah nothing's changed
My life's one big catastrophe
So don't expect too much from me
I'm just hanging on
Surviving
Just hanging on
Surviving
I'm barely hanging on
