The Road To Ruin Lyrics

I tried to write a happy song

But the words just came out wrong

My brain is mixed up with pills and booze

My brain's the only thing I've left to lose

I'm walkin' around in a hazy state

And I won't touch what's put on my plate

And I know it's because of my heart

So I sit alone feelin' sorry for myself

And I think of her and my stomach melts

And I don't know where to start

See the road to ruin is paved with bones

Of the me that everybody gets to know

As I erase the numbers on my phone

I have nowhere but a road to go

See the alcohol may numb the pain

But when morning comes it's back again

I look in the mirror and I feel ashamed

So I walk the road to ruin in the rain

She gave me back the diamond ring

But a hundred girls won't change a thing

The seretonin's not kicked in yet

So I read comics to help me forget

So I dance with a girl on Saturday night

But on the back of my head it don't feel right

It feels just like I'm cheating

Even now when I come home at half past three

I imagine her there waiting for me

I can't help giving myself a beating

See the road to ruin is paved with bones

Of the me that everybody gets to know

As I erase the numbers on my phone

I have nowhere but a road to go

See the alcohol may numb the pain

But when morning comes it's back again

I look in the mirror and I feel ashamed

So I walk the road to ruin in the rain

See the road to ruin is paved with bones

Of the me that everybody gets to know

As I erase the numbers on my phone

I have nowhere but a road to go

See the alcohol may numb the pain

But when morning comes it's back again

I look in the mirror and I feel ashamed

So I walk the road to ruin in the rain
