My mind doesn't work so well these day
I drink all my waking hours away
If I sit here long enough
Maybe I think of something
That'll makes you stay
Something tells me not think at all
I sit in the darkness starin' at the wall
This loneliness is hell
I search for drinks and things
To make me well
I spend my life staring
Through my bloodshot eyes
I'll never know where I belong
With eyes closed fast
I play photographs of you
You stare at me and wonder
How I'm doing
I tell you that I'm fine
That thought echoes through my empty mind
I close my eyes again
With barroom bliss and a strangers kiss
I'm home
Cause none ever wants to be alone
I doubt that there is a way
I'll ever speak the words
That'll make you stay
My mind doesn't work so well these days
I drink all my waking hours away
If I sit here long enough
Maybe I think of something
That'll makes you stay
Something tells me not think at all
I sit in the darkness starin' at the wall
This loneliness is hell
I search for drinks and things
To make me well
I spend my life staring
Through my bloodshot eyes
I'll never know where I belong
With eyes closed fast
I play photographs of you
You stare at me and wonder
How I'm doing
I tell you that I'm fine
That thought echoes through my empty mind
I close my eyes again
With barroom bliss and a strangers kiss
I'm home
Cause none ever wants to be alone
I doubt that there is a way
I'll ever speak the words
That'll make you stay
My mind doesn't work so well these days
