The kitchen table be'n broken
Things weren't going so well
A struggle gone worse than wrong
A struggle gone strait to hell
(chorus)
Won't you tell me sometime that I'm doing fine
Instead of saying "you're outta your mind"
Accumulation of years and tears salting down beer
Lets me hold onto her like I'm blind
Looking down like I'd left my body
Blood seeping outta her ear
She's still yelling at me
"take the damn stuff and leave"
I watched myself gimp to the door
(chorus)
Hold on to your lover my folks used to say
Hold on to the one and stay
But she does it her way and her ways killing me
I'm searching for stronger days
(chorus)
Was a rough one last Saturday evening
