I thought about
leaving but i couldn't even get outta bed
i'm hangin' cause i couldn't get a ride outta town
now anyone who really wanted me to be down
come 'round
Thought about
singin' but i couldn't remember all of the words
breakin' but i couldn't get the pieces apart
laughin' never knowing what the joke was about
Now i'm down
and i wonder how i never got the burn
and if i'm ever gonna learn
how lonely people make a life
one strain at a time
Forgot about
everything and everyone i needed before
tryin' to get a handle on a reason to shine
pickin' up the pieces that are falling behind takes time
So i wonder how i never got the burn
and if i'm ever gonna learn
how lonely people make a life
one strain at a time and still shine
And i wonder how i never got the burn
and if i'm ever gonna learn
how lonely people make a life
one strain at a time
And i wonder how i never got the burn
and if i'm ever gonna learn
how lonely people make a life
one strain at a time and still shine
