[00:03.407]Godsmack is how the wind feels on the face of Mike Winfield
[00:06.387]On his way home from the bar where he works nights
[00:08.977]the worst nights, don't nobody tip right
[00:11.268]And between the marriage offers and the fist fights
[00:13.500]And if another m***** f***** touch his wrist trying to pull him in to whisper
[00:16.286]He ain't making it to midnight
[00:17.850]Don't they know he got a lighter in his pocket
[00:19.998]A matchbook in his sock
[00:21.282]and a block full of charred skeletons closeted begging to get out
[00:24.168]He paused cause he's scared of airing out the thoughts
[00:26.036]He can taste it in his mouth the sulfur and bitter carbon
[00:28.035]Hearing all the burning bodies shout but no
[00:29.870]That was a full lifetime ago and nobody ever has to know
[00:33.182]He has never told well except Ronald
[00:35.279]But that don't count he was sweet and
[00:36.685]exactly what he needed him to be at the time
[00:39.350]Wine and candlelight and nice texts at lunchtime
[00:42.649]Why had he not called Ron back
[00:44.635]Guess there just wasn't a spark
[00:47.017]No no musn't joke about these things
[00:48.819]Wouldn't want to disappoint Doc Clark
[00:50.403]So many hours on the couch
[00:52.065]So many buried memories that take so many tears to get them out
[00:56.077]Water hadn't never been a friend
[00:57.426]Hold up - where had he seen that car before
[01:00.372]Blue Acura dent on the left rear fender
[01:03.171]Back again the sense of Deja Vu
[01:05.806]Strange things you
[01:06.959]Never shake when you wake up in recovery
[01:09.070]But suddenly noticing ash is covering his head cause it's raining from the sky
[01:12.499]Dials home on his cell phone and gets no reply
[01:14.787]What the f*ck?
[01:15.452]Where is the babysitter that he overpays
[01:17.635]Body takes over and brain becomes disengaged
[01:19.819]Michael is running his house is three blocks away
[01:21.968]Adrenaline compensating for change in age
[01:24.135]Since the last time that he ran it god dammit
[01:26.236]Mike knows he gotta get home fast as he can
[01:28.486]Looks up in the sky, glow's familiar
[01:29.957]Knows those families died with similar awnings and on and on he keeps going
[01:32.887]Hits the corner just as he hears the explosion
[01:34.341]Screams comes from the house,"Did you get them out"
[01:36.126]Mike asking the crowd that has gathered round
[01:37.984]Tears running down his face
[01:38.873]There's that familiar taste
[01:39.823]He wishes it would take him to another place
[01:41.684]Son and his baby girl in his home and he can't believe that it's gone in a cloud of smoke
[01:44.792]And he's choking and running forward and hoping against hope that he might find them alive and well
[01:47.975]When he knows the results too well and he knows that fooled himself
[01:50.274]And he keeps walking toward the house rather what house is still left
[01:52.874]No intention of stopping letting the smoke take his breath
[01:55.458]Some strong arm rocks him aside Mike falls to the ground and cries
[01:58.034]Why won't you just let me die
[01:59.360]Why won't you just let me die
