Katie Tidmore - This Time Lyrics

I got picked up by the law again
There's something 'bout a September wind
That hits me different
The days get short and the nights are long
And it's when I start to feel alone And long sleeves can hide the bruises on my arms
And I'm alive, but I'm dead inside
My hopes, my dreams, you and me I always sabotage it seems
And here we'll be again, I'll get better But the good don't last forever
Guess I feel safe in my own misery
And you'll hold on as long as you can
But it truly hurts to be my man And you'll pray and pray I'll make it out alive
This time
I stole from my own family
I watched my kids cry and scream
And I pretended that I didn't feel a thing
Cause I'm not worth the work it takes To put in every single day
You're all so much better off without me
And I cry, cause I'm dead inside
And I know it won't be long until you leave me
And here we'll be again, I'll get better But the good don't last forever
Guess I feel safe in my own misery
And you'll hold on as long as you can
But it truly hurts to be my man And you'll pray and pray I'll make it out alive
This time
This time
And here we'll be again, I'll get better But the good don't last forever
Guess I feel safe in my own misery
And you'll hold on as long as you can
But it truly hurts to be my man And you'll pray and pray I'll make it out alive
Here I'll be again, I got better no it may not last forever
But I promise you I'll make it out alive
This time
