lyrics

Whole box of smokes and alcohol
Man I was running my mouth
Walked right into a wall
As the bar was emptying out

And this is where the whole thing led
All the next day in bed
I woke up in pain still hearing the sound
Of her name in my head

Didn't want to face an empty room
Didn't waste time making my mind up
I knew the place would close at two
Where did I think that I'd wind up?

I was just putting things off
Throbbing head and a wicked cough

Whole box of smokes and alcohol
Man I was running my mouth
Walked right into a wall
As the bar was emptying out

And this is where the whole thing led
All the next day in bed
I woke up in pain still hearing the sound
Of her name in my head

You know I always miss sunrise
It's supposed to stand for something new
I hope to wake with different eyes
She's usually standing in my view

I was just wiping it clean
But in the morning she's still in my dream
Putting things off
Throbbing head and a wicked cough

Whole box of smokes and alcohol
Man I was running my mouth
Walked right into a wall
As the bar was emptying out

And this is where the whole thing led
All the next day in bed
I woke up in pain still hearing the sound
Of her name in my head
I woke up in pain still hearing the sound
Of her name in my head
