Well, I started running after the staying failed to work Gotten used to living a little heart broke and hurt Might seem reckless 'cause I'm living a little out When the truth is I'm just lonesome down and out When I wake up with an aching, a feeling I cannot hide I start to shaking, I'm just breaking down inside Just don't ask me 'cause I won't tell you I'm much too proud When the truth is I'm just lonesome down and out Well, I try to convince myself that I can't feel the pain Soak it up with whiskey and I walk out in the rain Stumble down the street while I scream and shout When the truth is I'm just lonesome down and out Well, I'm standing on a mountain the one I built with guilt and shame Lookin' out on the messes I've made I wish that I could go back down and say I'm sorry without a doubt When the truth is I'm just lonesome down and out Well, I try to convince myself that I can't feel the pain Soak it up with whiskey and I walk out in the rain Stumble down the street while I scream and shout When the truth is I'm just lonesome down and out Stumble down the street while I scream and shout When the truth is I'm just lonesome down and out
