[Intro]

"You gonna sing me a song?"

"Ohhh oh ohh! Maybe you should sing a song."


[Verse 1]

If I had a dollar bill for every time I've been wrong

I'd be a self-made millionaire and you'd still be gone

So hand me down my best dress shoes and my best dress shirt

'Cause I'm going out in style to cover the hurt


[Verse 2]

All I wanna do all day is spend it in bed

But that's bad for the body and even worse for my head

So I'll try and find a place where no one will ask me a thing

It'll help me to forget and help me to sing


[Chorus]

Cause now, I'm drunk again

The means to my end

And I'm scared of myself

Cause now, it's all the same

The faces and names

And I'm scared of myself again


[Verse 3]

Have you ever wanted to wake up from your dreaming?

It scared you so bad, you couldn't control your heart or your breathing

Well, walk out the door with me on the floor, you don't care how I'm feeling

I guess a weak and tired and frightened man is no longer appealing


[Chorus]

Cause now, I'm drunk again

The means to my end

And I'm scared of myself

Cause now, it's all the same

The faces and names

And I'm scared of myself again


[Bridge]

Some people have a gift of reaching right into your soul

And finding the hole and making it bigger

Baby, sometimes I think I catch you cracking cynical smiles

And in a short while, you'll be my heart's gravedigger

Well, there's not much I can do

Cause I'm at the mercy of you

So, baby, I guess we're through


[Chorus]

Cause now, I'm drunk again

The means to my end

And I'm scared of myself

Cause now, it's all the same

The faces and names

And I'm scared of myself

Cause now, it's all the same

The faces and names

And I'm scared of myself

So go, walk out the door

You don't believe me no more

And I'm scared of myself again

Again


[Outro]

If I had a dollar bill for every time I've been wrong

I'd be a self-made millionaire and I wouldn't be singing
