Because I lost my job
My bills are getting bigger
Cryin' baby bout to lose my mind
Hundred dollar habit I ain't got a penny
My woman ran off with a friend of mine
I can't keep a job cause I'm too fucked up
Dhs bout to take my kids
Tryin' to get well keep getting sicker
Oh lord please forgive me for what I'm about to do
I'm running on empty and my options are few
You know that I did the best that I can
But I've done hit rock bottom my time is at hand
Sometimes I wonder who the fuck I am
So I've been lookin' in the mirror and it still don't make no sense
I'm askin' what am I supposed to do?
I've done so much in my short lifetime, but I haven't done shit
Keep in mind that a mans just as good as his word.
It takes twice as long to build bridges you burn.
And there is hurt you can cause time alone cannot heal.
Keep your nose on the grind stone and out of the pills.
I've been drinkin' to remember and drinkin' to forget
I got "I love you" on my mind, I got Jim Beam on my breath
And loneliness has got the rest, I've got nothin' left within me
It must be the whiskey!
