Don't Let Me Fall lyrics

I walked the highway since I can't remember
I cut my poor family right down to the bone
From the shadows of hell to the winds of December
They dined with the strangers, woke up all alone
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/h/hayes_carll/dont_let_me_fall.html ]
Chorus
So don't let me fall, cause iI might not get up again
Just hold me tight, right now what I need's a friend
I've come too far for this to be the end
Don't let me fall, cause I might not get up

God knows I tried to hold on to a feeling
Some old memory to keep in my heart
And I ask forgiveness from those I've forsaken
Forgiveness won't come in and it tears me apart

Repeat Chorus

Killing this pain outside in the rain
One hand holds the bottle one hand holds my shame
I don't know which comes first I don't know which is worst
Riding behind or inside the hearse
