lyrics

I was asked the other day
What I do when I’m unhappy
Well I’ve never been any other way
So I just do the same old things
Strum my guitar and sing my songs
A coping mechanism for the lonely
I can’t do much I’m not that strong
Any more and I will break
I will break

The Nashville skyline does nothing for me
Cause I don’t belong in this city
I’ve got black wool in the city of sheep
A depressed loner wretched and empty
So I’ll just strum my guitar and sing my songs
Distance myself from the Broadway
I can’t do much I’m not that strong
Any more and I will break
I will break

I’ll strum my guitar and sing my songs
Use music to kill the sad in me
I’ll just keep singin’ ‘till it’s all gone
That’s what I do when I’m unhappy
