Defeater – No Relief lyrics

Waking up safe and sound
The words could hardly leave my mouth
How did I make it out alive?
I lose the same sleep every night
How did I make it out alive?

I got your letter today
And when I heard my name
My stomach sank to the floor, I can’t take anymore
I’m digging my own grave
And it read “Dear John”
I knew this day would come
I’m drinking every drop until the aching will stop,
Until you pull that rig out of your arm

A wise man once told me
There will be no relief
We will never be free of the horrible things
And the pain that we’ve seen
And that same man was told
“No matter where we may roam
You forget what you know of that life you once lived
Because your home ain’t never home.”

I got your letter today
And when I heard my name
My stomach sank to the floor, I can’t take anymore
I’m digging my own grave
And it read “Dear John”
I knew this day would come
I’m drinking every drop until the aching will stop,
Until you pull that rig out of your arm.

And it read Dear John
And it read Dear John
I’m drinking every drop until the aching will stop
And it read Dear John
And it read Dear John
And it read Dear John
I’m drinking every drop until the aching will stop
And it read Dear John
