lyrics

I was on the verge of breaking down
I took my keys and I drove out
Is there time for peace in the dark?
Is there time for love in a civil war?

I was on the verge of swallowing myself
So I dug under the tree and the roots were gone
Was it mine to take this ache I found?
Do you feel good? Do you feel odd?

Pain it's gone and I'm gone away love with the wind
Pain it's gone and I'm gone away for good
Pain it's gone and I'm away love with the wind
I'm never coming home

I was on the verge of falling out
My momma said baby you can work it out
Is there time for compromise in a civil war?
How do you feel now that you found doubt?

Pain it's gone and I'm gone away love with the wind
Pain it's gone and I'm gone away for good
Pain it's gone and I'll never let anyone in
I'm never coming home
