I've been down to the bottom of a bottle
I live my life stuck in full throttle
And slowing down, slowing down
Keeps grinding my gears
And I took risks I never should've taken
And I broke hearts that didn't need breaking
And I don't know why, don't know why
I can't cry tears
And I just can't seem to walk the line
It's always been easy to say goodbye
When I'm always running
And nothing gonna change my mind
And I just can't seem to get a clue
I never seem to think things through
It's T-U-F-F, tuff
I can't win the fight
With the fool inside of me
Too many times I've had to learn the hard way
Made mistakes, but tomorrows a new day
I've been there, done that
I ain't looking back
Yeah, and I lost track
With the man in the mirror
But a whiskey glass seem to make things clearer
And I don't know why, don't know why
But I gotta admit
And I just can't seem to walk the line
It's always been easy to say goodbye
When I'm always running
And nothing gonna change my mind
And I just can't seem to get a clue
I never seem to think things through
It's T-U-F-F, tuff
I can't win the fight
With the fool inside of me
And when I'm about to get things straight
The fool in me takes a swing
He always seems to find a way to turn me upside down
Yeah, yeah
