Wild Turkey

Late at night when I feel alone
I cry in darkness, scream into the unknown
'Cause she's never coming back
No, she's never coming back

Body and water for days and days
Hopes for a safe return, my hopes in vain
'Cause she's never coming back
No, she's never coming back

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care
Stayed numb for years to escape despair
When you're soul dies you just can't hide it
Everyone can tell
Oh Lord, will I ever feel right again?

Tried so hard to be an automaton
Body of steel and wired circuits for my backbone
'Cause she's never coming back
No, she's never coming back

Wild turkey in the car seat
The bottle's empty, I hope it gave her some relief
'Cause she's never coming back
No, she's never coming back

When I was seventeen, I pretended not to care
Stayed numb for years to escape despair
When you're soul dies you just can't hide it
Everyone can tell
Oh Lord, will I ever feel?

I was seventeen, I pretended not to care
Stayed numb for years to escape despair
When you're soul dies you just can't hide it
Everyone can tell
Oh Lord, will I ever feel
Will I ever feel
Right again?
