Surviving Emily — текст песни (The Warren Brothers)

Beyond the cost of diesel fuel
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 make-up in the bathroom drawer
I can`t get away from her
Her perfume on my pillow case
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
Surviving Emily
