Feeling like I've fallen
and I'm falling again
left outta michigan
with a chip
on my shoulder
just a little bit smaller
than the distance
of the drive
between here and there
now there's no going back
once you've beat yerself
this far down
parked myself in tucson
with one last paycheck
and half a hope
of letting go
but when i close my eyes
i still see her face
and i could swear
i still feel her hand in mine
no force
no power
no act
of will alone
will make me let go
