At a bar in a town that I sure won't remember. Next time September will show her cruel face I will race to the bottle of every glass And I hope that these drinks have a shot at replacing The things that I lost on the way that I took to this place
So give me one shot of whiskey Two lines of ******* And tell everyone who I love that I'm sorry but I'm built this way And if you see my brother Please tell him I'm fine Promise I'm trying to get home for Christmas Though I'm not sure quite why
Mercy me, oh my god, I'm afraid that I'm losing my mind It was hard it was dark I was starved for attention I was seeking redemption or a face that I know If there's one thing I've learned as I pass through the seasons To not "what you reap what you sow" It's that get what you give if you're lucky but mostly you don't.

Mercy me, oh my god, I'm afraid that I'm losing my mind I feel like a snowball in hell cuz I ain't gonna last real long Or a liberty bell got cracked on it's very first song It would easy to add all the things I've done right Hard to count all the ones I've done wrong Where did the time go? Where has it gone?
