Going Down Again
I am a worthless, broken man.
That may sound sad, but its true
I think you would agree if you saw it from here
could see it from this point of view.
I've screwed up everything I've done, never going per plan
Now I'm nothing, a nobody
seems my colors have all ran
Lost what is most important to me
The woman I love doesnt want to know me any more
I have known what its like to be penniless
but it is without her that I truly am poor
I should have done things differently
they say hind sight is twenty-twenty
Instead I'm out, living across town
and always missing my one true honey
I pen these words, not for pity
rather in writing I can swallow some of the pain
Besides, its just a way to pass the time
as I going on down the drain
