A song about being sad, I wrote it but I'm not sure how original it is I wake up every day with grey light
streaming through my window
and I think to myself
Maybe this is gonna be
the day I finally get away from me
But I know, it's not likely
'Cause I have found the only one
who'll never leave you is you
whether you like it or not
please come over here, and lay down beside me
'cause I'm in need of someone to hold onto
But I know that isn't likely
Am I doomed to walk alone
through a world, I have grown to despise
I don't want you false connections
no, I don't want your misdirection
and I don't want to play the game
I think that's much more likely
But I've been drinking, and feeling sorry for myself
so don't pay me no nevermind
Just one more round, and I'll go home
and sleep it off, and in the morning I'll be fine
but we both know that's not likely
So I'll drown my sorrow in whiskey and guitars
Townes van Zandt and Guy Clarke
Maybe one day I will listen to a happy song
and sing along with all my heart
but I know, it's not likely
No that doesn't sound like me
