[Verse 1]
I was down, I was hopeless, I was barely hanging on
I was singing the blues, living life like a country song
Then I took a long look in the mirror
Took another drink and I was gone
[Verse 2]
And I emptied my wallet and bought some cigarettes
And I filled up the tank, gonna drive till there's nothing left
Then I took a long look in the mirror
Gonna find out how bad things can get
[Verse 3]
Now I know that hearts get tired and
Sometimes love is a game we lose but
I'm sorry it was you
Who had to learn that too
[Verse 4]
I woke up in St. Louis with a dozen messages unread, oh no
I didn't know how I got there or in that stranger's bed
So I took a long look in the mirror
My eyes had turned to devil red
[Verse 5]
Now I know that hearts get tired and
Sometimes love is a game we lose but
I'm sorry it was you
Who had to learn that too
