Spent Lyrics by John Louis

I’ll Be Fine

2020

If only the drinks understood what I’ve been through
If only my attempts to blot you out didn’t hurt my health
If only I learned how to love what I died to
Then maybe I’d learn how to hate what I do to myself

‘Cause I remember trips we took
Like we just got home yesterday
I revisit our old pictures
Like the headstone on our grave

I remember gifts I gave you
On your birthday at the beach
The engraving on your watch
That marked our anniversary

When does the healing start?
How long do I have to feel this low?
Why don’t I protect my heart?
I can’t remember ever feeling so alone

Why doesn’t God show His face when I need Him to?
I wish I had the strength to ask Him where He went
‘Cause then maybe He’d welcome me home, like a father would
And maybe I wouldn’t be sitting here, oh, so spent

‘Cause I remember back in Sunday school
That He was in control
So I confessed Him with my mouth
But that was fourteen years ago

I remember nights when I would cry
Alone beneath the moon
Oh, if only I could find the strength
To ask Him, “Where were You?”

When does the healing start?
How long do I have to feel this low?
Why don’t I protect my heart?
I can’t remember ever feeling so alone

When does the healing start?
How long do I have to feel this low?
Why don’t I protect my heart?
I can’t remember ever feeling so alone

I can’t remember ever feeling so alone

If only I’d seen how you looked when I told you
That I wouldn’t leave you no matter how dark it got
Then maybe I’d have seen it coming, my lover
Maybe I’d have avoided becoming somebody I’m not
