lyrics

I left my family and left my home
Just to sing this shit into a microphone
I sing way too much nowadays because I think too much
My mind's a maze

I try to grit my teeth til my jaw is locked
Some days it feels like I just can't stop
The road I'm on is full of warnin' signs
The bridge is out but I just keep drivin'

I probably should turn back around
And give my wife and kids a kiss
Instead of singing to the folks in the bar
About all the things I miss
What I thought would make things better
Has only made it worse
I traded everything I love
For the verse chorus verse

Folks in Kentucky down to Tennessee
East or west it's all the same to me
Faces in a crowd that I just can't see
I've got a tuned up guitar but I'm singin' off key

Wanted to sing a couple songs drink a few rounds
But the songs took fire and burned my world to the ground
Now I stay up late cause I just can't sleep
And pray to the ceiling for how it used to be

I probably should turn back around
And give my wife and kids a kiss
Instead of singing to the folks in the bar
About all the things I miss
What I thought would make things better
Has only made it worse
I traded everything I love
For the verse chorus verse
