Before I Break

[Intro]

On liquor I spent my last dime

[Verse 1]

Sunday morning, 8 a.m. 

Just cursing myself again

Drinking like each one might be my last

Blurred memories of making toasts

To the cheapest beer and talk-show hosts

Funny then, but that's faded fast

[Chorus]

Here's to waking up at night

Half-drunk in a ditch by the side of the road

You're still thinking

That you can't go on like this

Headed for a breakdown

You keep saying thanks for tomorrow, 'cause I can't live

Thanks for tomorrow, 'cause I've had enough

Well, it'd do me just fine to make it through the night

On liquor I spent my last dime

[Verse 2]

A worried man drinks a healthy drink

But he drinks nine or ten until he's done

Then he'll tell you his life story

But he won't stop until he's told you and everyone

[Chorus]

Well, here's to waking up at night

Half-drunk in a ditch by the side of the road

And you're still thinking

That you can't go on like this

Before I break down

You keep saying thanks for tomorrow, 'cause I can't live

Thanks for tomorrow, 'cause I've had enough

Well, it'd do me just fine to make it through the night

On liquor I spent my last dime

[Verse 1]

Blurred memories of making toasts

To the cheapest beer and talk-show hosts

Funny then, but that's faded fast

[Chorus]

Here's to waking up at night

Half-drunk in a ditch by the side of the road

You're still thinking

That you can't go on like this

Headed for a breakdown

You keep saying thanks for tomorrow, 'cause I can't live

Thanks for tomorrow, 'cause I've had enough

Well, it'd do me just fine to make it through the night

On liquor I spent my last dime
