[Verse 1]
I woke up in the back seat of a '91 Explorer
Sleepin' off a three-day party I barely could recall
I stumbled to the sidewalk, lit the last of a half-broke cigarette
I wondered why I left my home and came down here at all
[Verse 2]
I had no real connections, just some drugged-out, strung-out losers
And a handful of half-songs no one would ever hear
I couldn't see my future in the bottom of the bottle
I was livin' in my car, but, honey, I was goin' nowhere
[Chorus]
All the loose change in my pockets and the patches on my jeans
Can't buy away the blues that this world's afforded me
But I'd sell my soul to write a song to save me from this trip I'm on
'Cause peace of mind is hard to find when you're on a losin' streak
[Post-Chorus]
Peace of mind is hard to find when you're on a losin' streak
Yeah
[Verse 3]
On the brink of a mental breakdown, I spent two weeks in the same clothes
Sleepin' in the shoes no one wished they were in
Wakin' up at sundown on the dark side of the party
I was lost and slippin' low than the low had ever been
[Chorus]
All the loose change in my pockets and the patches on my jeans
Won't buy away the blues that this world's afforded me
But I'd sell my soul to write a song to save me from this trip I'm on
'Cause peace of mind is hard to find when you're on a losin' streak
[Post-Chorus]
Peace of mind is hard to find when you're on a losin' streak
Peace of mind is hard to find when you're on a losin' streak
I said, "Peace of mind is hard to find when you're on a losin' streak"
Yeah
[Outro]
They say everybody loses, just count your lucky bruises, baby
I'm gonna let that yellow sunshine wrap its arms around my mind
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
