Fill My Eyes

And in the morning when you fill my eyes

I knew that day I couldn't do,

Ahh, no wrong, I couldn't do.

And so my mind begins to memorize

'Cause time will never seem the same,

Ahh, no more, never again.

I'm just a coaster but my wheels won't go,

My legs are weak my heels are low.

I'm just a coaster but my wheels won't roll.

Can't make no headway on this road.

There's an empty space inside me now,

A wasteland deep beneath the snow,

So cold, nothing'll grow.

I'm just a coaster but my wheels won't go,

My legs are weak my heels are low.

I'm just a coaster but my wheels won't roll.

Can't make no headway on this road. What road?

And in the morning when you fill my eyes

I knew that day I couldn't do,
