The Bum
 
  I thought about
Leaving but I couldn’t even get outta bed
I’m hangin’ cause I couldn’t get a ride outta town
Now anyone who really wanted me to be down
Come ’round

Thought about
Singin’ but I couldn’t remember all of the words
Breakin’ but I couldn’t get the pieces apart
Laughin’ never knowing what the joke was about

Now I’m down
And I wonder how I never got the burn
And if I’m ever gonna learn
How lonely people make a life
One strain at a time

Forgot about
Everything and everyone I needed before
Tryin’ to get a handle on a reason to shine
Pickin’ up the pieces that are falling behind takes time

So I wonder how I never got the burn
And if I’m ever gonna learn
How lonely people make a life
One strain at a time and still shine

And I wonder how I never got the burn
And if I’m ever gonna learn
How lonely people make a life
One strain at a time

And I wonder how I never got the burn
And if I’m ever gonna learn
How lonely people make a life
One strain at a time and still shine
