Heartaches and Hangovers

My pounding head's all the proof I need To see that my life needs a change And the heartaches that I've felt before They both share the same blame From the bottle came the turkey From the can poured the shame Since my missing you, I had to choose How can I keep living life this way Heartaches and hangovers Broken dreams and wasted days Not suttle in their difference But they're one in the same I don't wanna go on without you Or see my life go to hell These demons that I carry Have me placed under their spell Every night I have the same regrets As I walk down the same road Never finding what I'm looking for Like somehow I had hoped Heartaches and hangovers Keep me living in the lie That the man reflecting back on me Is somehow different deep inside A broken man can sometimes wonder Just where did he go wrong He'll use the problems from his broken past To write a damn good country song Why did everyone who loved him Or at least claimed that they'd tried Run away without one regret And leave him dying more inside Heartaches and hangovers With yourself you must get right Stop living in your broken past And keep walking towards the light Heartaches and hangovers....
