Not A Bad Man

I am not a bad man

I want you to know

I signed up when I was nineteen

Now I’m twenty-four years old

There's ghosts that follow me around

Things I seen and did

But I am not a bad man

Just an American kid

I bet you see a stranger

When you look at me

When I look in the mirror

I know that’s what I see

Got some pills to get my head right

But they don't work so well

So I drank a little more tonight

And here is where I fell

I bet you see a stranger

When you look at me

When I look in the mirror

I know that's what I see

I just want a little sleep now

A sleep that's silent as the snow

But I am not a bad man

I just wanted you to know
