The Bum — Matchbox 20

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
