Barroom Bliss Lyrics

My mind doesn't work so well these days
I drink all my waking hours away
If I sit here long enough
maybe I think of something
that'll make you stay
Something tells me not think at all
I sit in the darkness staring at the wall
This loneliness is hell
I search for drinks and things
to make me well
I spend my life staring
through my bloodshot eyes
I'll never know where I belong
With eyes closed fast I play photographs of you
you stare at me and wonder how I'm doing
I tell you that I'm fine
That thought echoes through my empty mind
I close my eyes again
With barroom bliss and a strangers kiss I'm home
Cause no one ever wants to be alone
I doubt that there is a way
I'll ever speak the words
that'll make you stay
My mind doesn't work so well these days
