Wild Turkey

Late at night when I feel alone
I cry in darkness and scream into the unknown
'Cause she's never coming back
No, she's never coming back
Body in water for days and days
Hopes for a safe return, my hope's 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 your 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 wire 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 your soul dies, you just can't hide it
Everyone can tell
Oh, Lord, will I ever feel

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