Lyrics
She was seventeen
On the high school team
For basketball and rodeo
A broken knee
A couple surgeries
Doctor started her on oxycodone
Now a little girl cries
When her mama dies
Over something out of their control
Where did it go wrong
A little trip overseas
Sponsored by the navy
Some fun in the desert sun
Then the government
Would have its money spent
On his bachelors degree and then some
But now with no right leg
And demons in his head
And a shopping cart that he calls home
Where did it go wrong
And they say
"Hell ain't waiting for me
'Cause I'm already living there
I don't when I traded my daydreams
For living nightmares"
And we don't want to believe
That they're too far gone
But do you even bother to say a prayer
They're just outside of our reach
Caught up in the snare
Six hard months on the road
And the bottle let him down again (and again)
So cocaine and Mary Jane became his new best friends
It's the nervous shakes
And the constant headaches
And it's way too easy to bring this whole thing to an end
Where did it go wrong
He used to live his whole life on a song
I say, where did it all go wrong
And they say
"Hell ain't waiting for me
'Cause I'm already living there
I don't when I traded my daydreams
For living nightmares"
And we don't want to believe
That they're too far gone
But do you even bother to say a prayer?
They're just outside of our reach
Caught up in the snare
And they say
"Hell ain't waiting for me
'Cause I'm already living there
I don't when I traded my daydreams
For living nightmares"
And we don't want to believe
That they're too far gone
But do you even bother to say a prayer
They're just outside of our reach
Caught up in the snare
