LYRICS... I need some help with this, can someone please fill

in the missing parts!

Sister can you hear me now

The ringing in your ears

Down on the ground

My luck's been tried for years

I'm lost in the dark

And I feel like a dinosaur

Broken face and broken hands

I'm a broken man

I hit the wall

I'm about to fall

But I'm closing in on air

I feel so weak

On a losing streak

Watch my taillights fade to black

I read a thing about this girl

She was a hermit in her world

Her story was much like mine

She could be my valentine

And although we've never met

I won't forget her yet

She cut herself off from her past

Now she's alone at last

I feel so sick

????

But I'm closing down on air

I feel so weak

On a losing streak

Watch my taillights fade to black

Lost my life in cheap wine

Now it's quiet time

??? Jesus Christ

Could not help my fate

But I'm underneath a gun

I'm singing 'bout my past

Hide myself from wonderful things

But I could not make it last

I hit the wall

I'm about to fall

But I'm closing in on air

I feel so small

Underneath it all

Watch my taillights fade to black

..Watch my taillights fade

..Watch my taillights fade

..Watch my taillights fade
