Well I can’t always remember What it is I should forget The happy ever after Hasn’t happened yet When I look into the mirror Look at what I see I see that guy looking back That ain’t me Running around Around we go When it stops you’ll know I’m going nowhere But I’m halfway to hell X2 Staring at the ceiling Staring at the wall Trying to find a reason To get up at all Everybody’s laughing Playing their sick games Everybody’s different I’m the same (Pre) (Chorus) Solo (Pre) (Chorus)
2.
Working on another hangover Find myself getting lower and lower Making my way up to the bottom of the barrel again Left hand knows where the right hand’s been Same old story wearing thin again Again Taking it all You take it from me There’s nothing left But I can’t breathe again Again Whiskey and bourbon Double shots and gin Line em up Let it all begin (Chorus) Window shopping for an early grave Spent all the money I ain’t made again Again Just enough rope is all I need Just enough rope to set me free again Again (Pre) (Chorus) Solo (Pre) (Chorus)

Bad Decision 03:32
Closing time comes around too soon Walking home by a rising moon Looking for one more second chance Live and die by your circumstance Another bad decision in a glass Killing time Gonna make it last Can’t go forward looking to the past Another bad decision in a glass Loneliness slowly fades away A little more each and every day You’ve got nothing left but nothing left to lose You live and die by choices that you choose (Chorus) Closing time comes around too soon Walking home by a rising moon Looking for one more second chance Live and die by your circumstance (Chorus) x 2

Well I know Something just ain’t right The way I’m feeling here tonight And I know It’s all gone wrong Guess I’ve known it all along Nothing is easy Nothing at all Hang on to yesterday It ain’t gonna call With a beer and a beaten and a broken heart All I ever get from you With a beer and a beaten and a broken heart Makes me think of you (Verse) (Pre) (Chorus) (Verse) (Pre) (Chorus)
5.
Cause you know everything It comes as no surprise I don’t need you falling down King of the kingdom with a jester’s eyes Wearing a rented crown Speaking of crazy I’m speaking of you All that you’re going through All of it lies All of its true Speaking of crazy I’m speaking of you You never listen You never learn You’re still playing the fool All of the bridges People that you burn Leave you nothing to lose Don’t you know everything Comes as no surprise I don’t need you falling down

Love Song 01:42
So you want a love song Well you ain’t gonna get one here Think by now I would’ve made that clear So you want a love song To help you sleep at night Don’t want trouble Don’t wanna fight Do what I do what I can Do what I do what I do I find myself falling down Crawling back to you Cause you want a love song Well you ain’t gonna get one here Think by now I would’ve made that clear Cause you want a love song To help you sleep at night Don’t want trouble Don’t wanna fight (Chorus) (Solo) So you want a love song Well you ain’t gonna get one here Think by now I would’ve made that clear Cause you want a love song To help me sleep at night Don’t want trouble Don’t wanna fight (Chorus)

Dead to Me 03:01
Let down Outta luck A broken heart in a pickup truck... Standing all alone Staring at a telephone... I don't know what you're trying to do.... Walking through a firing a line Beating the bullet one more time You're dead to me Dead is was you'll always be. I rolled the dice Played the game No one but myself to blame I bet on red it comes up black Now there ain't no turning back... No remorse No regrets Burning out like a cigarette.. (Chorus) Let down Outta luck A broken heart in a pickup truck... Standing all alone Staring at a telephone... I don't know what you're trying to do.... (Chorus)
8.
Well all you’ve ever wanted And nothing that you need You still can’t get enough Always look for something Something you’ll never see You’re never done giving up No one hears you screaming No one hears you cry No one there to watch you die The devil’s in the rearview The reaper’s by your side Taking one more ride Don’t wait for tomorrow You won’t be coming back Taking one more ride You’re only good for nothing And always born to lose At least that’s what the tattoo said Your lives an illusion Not gonna save your soul Every time you wake up dead (Pre) (Chorus) Solo (Pre) (Chorus)
9.
Everybody needs a reason And someone else to blame Why everything is different But somehow stays the same As the second hand waves goodbye to a checkered past gin soaked prophets raise another glass......... Well its all so long ago Way before the light Back when Back when the devil was right Everybody knows the problem But no one wants to say They all know the answer But choose to look away I never understand why the darn there eyes better that they don't speak instead of telling lies (Chorus) Bridge (Chorus) x2
10.
Walking shadows Crossing the floor Last year’s model Darkens the door Barrooms lawyers Empty heads Always talking Nothing is said Woah oh oh One for the road Take it easy Taking it slow Forever is all that you know Woah oh oh One for the road Whiskey whispers Silent screams Selling stories and Second hand dreams Open bottles Loveless hearts Spilling over Falling apart (Chorus) Solo (Chorus) Woah oh oh One for the road
