I Hit The Wall

I remember blue lagoons

I remember padded rooms

And fat lines of pill heads tryin' to

Load me up on sonic booms

And as the fuse of the night burned

I remember sucking down on a, a shotgun

Swinging a glass at a bartender

I hit the wall, and the wall won

I hit the wall, and the wall won

Next I know, I'm in a, a cell block

In just a cowboy's helmet and a football sock

Two angels hanging up above

In uniforms and rubber gloves

I said, Darling ain't nobody's ever seen

The other side of where I've been

There's a wall out there, and it's no fun

I hit the wall, and the wall won

The sky'll tell ya if it's day or night

The Bible tells ya if it's wrong or right

The wall is there to tell ya slow down, son

I hit the wall, and the wall won

He hit the wall, and the wall won

I remember a quick chase

I remember a blast of mace

A ward somewhere, an intern too far

Bored to care stitchin' up my face

I said, Darling ain't nobody's ever seen

The other side of where I've been

There's a wall out there, and it's no fun

I hit the wall, and the wall won

I hit the wall, and the wall won

I hit the wall, and the wall won

There's a wall out there saying, "Slow down, son"

I hit the wall, and the wall won
