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
