Well, I've been drinking for my mind again
and regretting the state I'm in.
I've been thinking about the life I've lived, yeah.
Well, I've been waking sick, sad, and sorry.
Making highs and lows my story
I've been thinking when not how
If I knew then what I know now.
I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop
Thinking dying was the way I'd stop
I dipped my toe in fell up to my eyes
Started believing in my own lies
I tried to wait for it but I had to make it mine
I tried to wait for it but I had to make it mine
As a boy it was all I knew
If I could hide from the things I went through
If it would take me out of me
I'd try to take me away from myself for awhile.
I tried to wait for it but I had to make it mine
I tried to wait for it but I had to make it mine
Well, I quit drinking for my mind at last
there's a reason that the past is the past
I started speaking from the heart again, yeah.
Yeah, I started speaking from the heart again, yeah.
