from the songs album Pain To Kill
He sais it's none of my damn business
how much he drinks
and he doesn't have a problem
no matter what the whole town thinks
At his baby's birthday party
there was whiskey on his breath
everybody wants to save him
but he's not ready yet
CHORUS:
You wanna scream
you wanna cry
you want someone to tell you why
all the hope that's in your heart is not enough
You hit your knees
you shake your fists
oh, it's the deepest wound there is
when you can't help the one you love
Her sister reads the bible
her father sits and snores
there with her every minute
cause they may not have many more
She was dancin in New Orleans
only seven weeks ago
life may go on without her
but not the life we know
REPEAT CHORUS
When someone's slippin away
right before your eyes
How useless we are
is a painful surprise
REPEAT CHORUS
When you can't help the one you love
