A stark naked light bulb in a room with no view The coffee tastes bitter, this whiskey tastes new I lied when I told you my dreams all came true And it's a hell of a ride, leaves me empty inside And living in cheap motel rooms
Another big city, one more face with no name And it's miles to the edge of the bed where I laid The cracks in the ceiling spell out all my shame And it's a hell of a ride, leaves me empty inside And living in cheap motel rooms
Oh I sit here and count every mile that Ive crossed And every mistake that Ive made While the flowers fade off the wall But how do I start to stop a wheel that's on fire When I can't even tell from the words of a liar Im trying to come down but I keep getting higher And it's a hell of a ride, leaves me empty inside And living in cheap motel rooms And it's a hell of a ride, leaves me empty inside And living in cheap motel rooms
