Well, I found you on the floor and I picked you up again
Hit the ground so hard, I can't carry my own sins
And I told myself this time, I'd get up and walk away
Said so many times, I can almost count the days
Well, whiskey tells the truth, and it sold you out again
In the worst way, we're reaching for the end
And you've let it slip away, but I've carried on the sound
And soon before I leave, well, you'll have to figure out
I can't let you drag me down
Well, once upon a time, was a man that held his tongue
Five years passed, and now he's on the run
He did all he could, he did all he knew
The Lord looks down, at the many at the few
I can't let you drag me down
No more
I can't let you drag me down
Well, now you're in the grave, and I carry my own guilt
Lost track of time, just trying to forget
So I guess I'll pack my bags, and I guess I'll leave this place
Find myself a town, where no one knows your name
I can't let you drag me down
No more
I can't let you drag me down
No more
No more
Can't drag me down
No more
Can't drag me down
Walk right out that door
