Hungover & Hard Up

(album: Chief - 2011)

Hung over and hard up
Broken down and messed up
I never saw your leaving coming but
I sure felt it when ya left
Memory button stuck on repeat
Mind skipping like a record machine
Over and over that goodbye scene
Keeps spinning in my head

It keeps haunting me
And there ain't no maybe about it
The hurt keeps calling me
Come on out we got you surrounded
Yeah the bottle in my hand is loaded and
I ain't afraid to use it tonight

Hung over and hard up
Pain hurts, whiskey's tough
And too much ain't ever enough
To break through your space
Living in a lost and found
Round and round, up and down
I'm tired of this seesaw, merry-go-round
So merry you can go to hell

All I wanna do
Is just get on down the highway
And I'll be there as soon as
I get on out of my way
Yeah the truth is like a hangman's noose
And it's holding up my heart tonight

Hung over and hard up
I tried it all, well now what?
I've given everything but up
And up's going down the drain
Just when I thought the coast was clear
You're clouding up my atmosphere
That morning sun's waiting there when I wake up
Hung over and hard up
