You used to say I had what it takes
I think I did if you meant too little too late
I can tell by the looks that I'm gettin'
I made some big mistakes
And I thought you said I was great
Shoot straight and give it my best try
I made my heart as hard as nails
That may be the way you live your life
But it's almost got me k**ed
Darling I'm not giving in
That happened miles ago
I heard the north star saying
Kid you're so lost even I can't bring you home
Did you think that we were going to last
Honey you know you don't have to answer that
Half of that was my kind of joke
I don't remember which half
I didn't know how blue I'd get
I didn't know how I'd get blamed for it
I didn't choose to go down this road
No one chooses to be sick
I'm saying everything is fine
By the look in my eye
But you know darling
Half of what a man says is a lie
It's your last chance to forget me now
That it's done for good
You always said I'd make it out
Somehow darling I knew I never would
