Making money at 30 with a wife and a son Then a short 5 years later, it all comes undone She's gone back to mama with the boy by her side Now I'm wine drunk and running with them on my mind
I'm on the backside of thirty and back on my own An empty apartment don't feel like a home On the backside of thirty, the short side of time
Back on the bottom with no will to climb It's dawn Monday mornin' and I just called in sick I skipped work last Friday to drink this month's rent And when my friends ask me I tell 'em I'm fine But my eyes tell the story that my lies can't hide
