Long Nights

the bottle is empty
the bartender brings a next one
but it didn't last to long
another bottle is gone

i thought about marijuana
but i change my mind
its just this heartbreak 
is being so unkind

light an other Marlboro
on stage there,s a dancer
smoking cigarettes
some say it cause cancer

its not so easy 
living with a broken heart
trying to keep it together
while your whole world falls apart

another night survived
watching the clock tick away
tired of the same routine
of repeating it everyday

walk out in the pouring rain
the stupid bar is close
got on my Harley Davidson
soaking wet from my head to toes

i really miss her
more than i will admit
i call her telephone and hangup
before she can answer it

if i hear her voice
i will break down tonight
and seeing a grown man cry
is not a very pretty sight

every day brings a long night
a night that takes forever to end
i write her a million text
but not one was send

some say alcohol helps
if you drank enough
some even suggest drugs
but i don't mess with that stuff

so i,m just traveling through this world
Riding my Harley out here alone
God has take my soul
Got to make it on my own

Following that straight line
Of the crooked road
There’s nothing left behind
Just an old zip code

i Seen the devil once
So I think I’m curse
Before it gets better
Things might just get worst

My broken heart
Shattered through my veins
only she can pull the pieces
To ease my pains

so i am looking my angel
With her kisses so sweet
She walking some where
With a slipper on her feet
