Lyrics
Kick Me
I'll be sinking like the sun goes down
I'll be drinking and I hope to drown
In a sea of pain and misery
The girl I trusted most
Put the screws to me
There comes a time when love will turn to hate
And some will look for ways to retaliate
I was in a self-destruct and crisis mode
Didn't need my boss to know I'm on overload
But someone told him
Kick me when I'm down (Kick me when I'm down)
Run me out of town (Small-town break-down)
I was trying to survive
Kick me when I'm down
It wasn't nice what was done to me
Purely designed to test my sanity
Gail told the wife, the wife she told her Sis
Who told my boss that something was amiss
Cowardice
Kick me when I'm down (Kick me when I'm down)
Run me out of town (Small-town break-down)
I was trying to survive
Kick me when I'm down
I gave up everything I loved
To do the right thing (So I quit the band)
All I got was dishonesty
As my birdie began to sing (Just to clip my wings)
I was trying to survive...
I got committed and strapped to a bed
In walked my boss insanely shaking his head
Asked what was up while I was driving his truck
I said the night before
I was really stuck...in a rut
Kick me when I'm down (Kick me when I'm down)
Run me out of town (Small-town shake-down)
I was trying to survive
Kick me when I'm down (Kick me when I'm down)
Kick me when I'm down (Kick me when I'm down)
Kick me when I'm down
