Letra de 3rd Shift

His mother said stay away
Away from all the darkness, it'll haunt you
And everything we've ever prayed
Is the only thing that will ever save you
But it all started with that little taste
It helped keep him up later at night, helped the truth come back into sight
And when she left him it dulled the pain
He'd hide the marks under his socks, the doctor said he was in shock from what he'd seen
His mama said it's the last time
It's the last time we'll be here to save you
Because you've fucked this up again
And those kids aren't your friends, they use you up
And now he's standing in the rain
He should have probably hopped the train instead of drove
The sergeant's seen this thing before
Maybe some time behind locked doors will save this kid
No, but it don't save him, and who's to blame?
The truth just keeps him up at night, there was never much inside he liked
The guilty phantoms make him insane
He could clean up but why start now, after all, who knows how to start again?
If they don't save him, who's to blame?
If he don't save him, who's to blame?
If we don't save him, who's to blame?
His mother said stay away
Away from all the darkness, it'll haunt you
And everything we've ever prayed
Is the only thing that will ever save you
But it all started with that little taste
It helped keep him up later at night, helped the truth come back into sight
And when she left him it dulled the pain
He'd hide the marks under his socks, the doctor said he was in shock
If we don't save him, who's to blame?
The truth just keeps us up at night, why can't he see what's there to like?
Do guilty phantoms make us insane?
If we clean it up there's no way out, time will tell if he makes it out of this alive
