[Verse 1]
Well I started running after the staying failed to work
Got used to living a little heart broke and hurt
Might seem reckless ‘cause I’m living a lil’ 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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 2]
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
