When I get drunk, and talk to God I wish that I could go to church but I'm too ashamed of me I hate the fact it takes a bottle to get me on my knees And I hope he'll forgive the things you ain't forgot I say I'm sorry for all the things I'm not I mean

This ride that takes me through life Leads me into darkness but emerges into light No one can ever slow me down I'll stay unbound Some live so wrong, with what we do is each his own But living in fear, endless shame for countless years I never lived in

What a shame What a loss Love to you, babe Do what you have to I think I know what you're trying to say Love to the lovers Hate to the haters The winner takes She takes it all

I let you down, I let you down I made waves, and I'm ashamed This all for you I let you down, I messed around 'Cause I'm a fool I made waves, my mistakes, yeah The cold in my bones I feel it in any weather Ghosts in my home

I'm running on empty I'm chasing a dead dream Clutching the will Only to feel No way to heal I stand before disaster The shame it takes me The pain it breaks me What have I done
