Terrified Eyes Lyrics

Sean says he can't sit here and tell her that it's really that simple
Because it's not that simple, it's exhausting and confusing and it's scary and complex
He hates how Shannon talks about herself like she's a whole separate person
And he's still p***** at her doctors but he's mostly just sick of not connecting
What the hell are we going to do when they finally let you come home from the hospital?
Sit around the house and make fake plans and then walk down to the Wagon Wheel?
The bills are gonna come and we'll just shrug our shoulders at the notion
The numbers so far into the beyond they look a little bit surreal

Satisfaction is a funny thing
Funny enough that when she brings it up he laughs a little bit
Before he breaks down.
It was obvious to anyone
The way she took her medication at the bar
The way she crossed herself
When it's the bartender's round
He's not gonna tell her its a matter of just kind of trying harder
He's not going to tell her if you love someone then you should set them free
He wishes that she wasn't always saying that she's sorry and looking up with terrified eyes
He said I wish that you could try to love yourself the same way that you love me
Frustration is a funny friend
Funny enough that he keeps coming up
And making me do things that I don't like
When you come home from the hospital
We can't go back to the Wagon Wheel
And if we do we can't go every night

In the middle of the day, she mostly feels okay
But when nighttime comes, she just feels terrified
