[Spoken Intro] [Male Vocal - quiet, live, to the room] Before this song starts — I need to warn you. This is the one I almost didn't make it to. If you're somewhere dark tonight — you can stay. I want you to stay. But maybe text someone first. Let them know you're listening. Because I came back. And I need you here when this is over. [Verse 1] [Male Vocal] Loaded my truck in the cold Nowhere left to be The woman I said I'd marry Chose someone else over me I took every piece of it Everything I'd carried and never let out Walked into that empty room And I gave up [Pre-Chorus] [Male Vocal] That's when the voice showed up The one that sounds like reason Calm as anything Said: well, that sucks May as well go [Chorus] [Male Vocal] I didn't want to kill me Just the pain I thought they were the same So we both had to go I lit a candle in the dark Put on something soft Wrote the words I couldn't say out loud And let the night come [Verse 2] [Male Vocal] I said a prayer to something Wasn't sure was there If I'm supposed to be here Wake me up I can't carry this anymore Just let me sleep [Pre-Chorus] [Male Vocal] That's when the voice showed up The one that sounds like reason Calm as anything Said: well, that sucks May as well go [Chorus] [Bridge] [Male Vocal] I called Someone came Said all the wrong things But he showed up That's ninety percent of the job Someone will come for you [Chorus] [Spoken Outro] [Male Vocal - drops to almost nothing] If you know that voice — if you've heard it — you're not crazy. You're not weak. And you're not alone. Find one person. Someone you love. Maybe you just like them. I don't care if it's a dog. Call them. Go be with them. You don't have to be alone tonight. I promise.
