The Click Clacks - Past Tense Lyrics

I nearly died last night
Maybe I did a bit
Gave me such a fright
But not enough to quit

Woke up on top of my bed
Fully clothed no memory
Feel my blood soaked head
An open wound where my hair used to be

And I'm scared of what I can do to myself
Scared of what I'll miss
Scared of how she could trust anyone else
If her father could do this

I nearly died the other day
But the haze it won't clear
What did I do what did I say
I'm so used to the fear

So I find my feet again
The scars they will heal
Back at it four days in
A dry month didn't quite appeal

And I'm scared of where this road will end
Scared to read the signs
Scared of how she could ever depend
On a father who's out of his mind

I nearly died one time
Feels like another age
Another chance to redefine
To turn the page

Will I walk her down the aisle
Or will she follow my box
Will I see a grandchild smile
Am I still heading for the rocks

And I'm scared that you are the one I'd leave
Scared I'm not making sense
Scared of how she would speak of me
Her father in past tense
Her father in past tense
Her father in past tense
