I Never Got to See the West Coast

So is it courage or strength

And is that what I'm waiting for

If I could just kill myself

Would it also kill the remorse

I wanted so badly to catch a break

But I'm only breaking down

I'm still here and standing

But if it's up to me I don't think

I'll be hanging around

The drink slips down my throat and the burn cures nice and slow all the worst parts I wouldn't want you to see

The only parts left of me now

Here I am just a kid without a better plan

But it's the simple thoughts that haunt me the most

I never got to see the west coast

Spend my nights just asking why

Would God let me become like this

Was it a joke from the start

Was I s'posed to laugh more at it

And everyone's quoting the teachers and preachers

But their words make me feel so alone

No one ever says that they've had those thoughts in the middle of the night

No one ever admits that they wanted to take their life

The drink slips down my throat

And the burn cures nice and slow

All the worst parts I wouldn't want you to see

The only parts left of me now

Here I am just a kid without a better plan

But it's the simple thoughts that haunt me the most

I never got to see the west coast

But it's the life I dreamed I d have

The love I would find in my grasp

The words I could share with someone

Those thoughts keep the breath in my lungs

The tomorrow my hope will become

Fulfilled by a Love that can't be undone

And save a wretch like me

So if the drink slips down your throat

And the burn cures nice and slow

All the worst parts you wouldn't want me to see

The same parts I have in me now

It scares me too we are both this way

I feel just like you do

But when you're by yourself you should know

One day we gotta see the west coast
