[Verse] Monday caught me early comin’ down by surprise Waitin’ for a signal light to change Breathin’ somethin’ bitter that was burnin’ my eyes Thinkin’ I’d go drink myself back home on the range [Verse] Shot down and sinkin’ fast on Sunset Strip Holdin’ to something in my head Everything gets heavy when you’re losin’ your grip Nothin’ looks as empty as a motel bed [BRIDGE] Lord I’m still a stranger In this God-forsaken land Farther from my future and my friends I’m gonna take enough to wake me up and make me one last one night stand Then take me home ’til somethin’s gonna smile at me again [Verse] Break my connections when I shake me loose Give my equipment to the band Let my friend the devil pay the rest of my dues Take me home ’til somethin’s gonna smile at me again
