I saw a reflection of a shadow
There stood my faith, my own
Reflection, bitterness more often than love
So I bought a gun, took a pill, hung a rope
But I had no bullets, just and aspirin, bitterness
Believing my girl would leave me so high
So high I couldnt reach, well
Where my baby lay up in the sky
A ??? took upon me as the day went on,
She was with another man, stood about 6 foot 3
240 pounds, a giant compared to me
It was my mouth and his might,
It was gonna be a long long day going on.
By this time it was 12:30
And I was passed out on the ground
Saw a hand to reach down and help me up
She was the prettiest little thing
When she asked how old I was I told her 22
She told me she was 19 and the day was young
So she took me home to her parents house
I was going to her parents house
But I was a man, making a woman
Make me a man, making a woman.
I saw a reflection of a shadow
There stood my faith, my own
Reflection, bitterness more often than love
So I bought a gun, took a pill, hung a rope
But I had no bullets, just and aspirin, bitterness
Its been about a year and I saw her the other day
**the next few lines overlap**
Hangin' out down cass and henry
Hanging like my heart was on a sleeve, on my sleeve
The girl who broke my heart
Made me wear my heart on my sleeve
The sleeve I wipe my tears with
She had my heart, my little diamond, my sapphire in the rough..it was gone, so gone.
I'm never, never gonna meet another girl
