Verse 1
There's AA Half-Lit Bar On TheE Edge Of TDown
NeonA Hums When The ESun Goes DDown
He ASwore He Wouldn't BEe Back In ThaDt Place
But ALife's Got A WayE Of Changing YourD Pace
He AChased His DreamsE Down Those DRoads
Broke HisA Back On TheE Life HeD Chose
I Told Him A"Don't Worry DaddyE You'll Be JustD Fine"
Now's HeA Lost In The Mess HeE Left BeDhind

Pre-Chorus
MyA Mama Said, "HoneyE, Don't Run FromD Pain"
But HeA Never Learned How ToE Make It StayD Away, And Said
I'mF#m Back To What I Know, BDack To The Burn
ABack To A Glass That Don'tE Ask Me To Learn
When TheF#m World Gets Loud And My DFaith Gets Low
I ALean On The OnlyE Thing I Know

When I ADon't Know Where Else ToE Go
And, IF#m Hate That It's DTrue
But I'mA Back To What IE Know

But TheyA Creep In When HeE Kills TheD Lights

And He'sA Still Stuck In TheE Same OldD Doubts
Now He'sA Sitting At The Bar With HisE Old DFriends
