Look at Me Now

Laying in a motel room with nothing but a guitar for a friend

Just staring at the TV watching reruns, flipping channels now and then

Contemplating all the complications of the situation I'm in

While the couple in the next room on

Their honeymoon are going to town again

Pull the rubber curtains tighter trying to

Keep out any light that might leak inside

So I can keep pretending it ain't noon, it's the middle of the night

Brush my teeth out of habit even though I haven't smiled in some time

What you left me chewing on is gonna be in my head for a while

I guess I should've listened looking back cause look at me now

A sad excuse for living, I'll admit it, since I left that town

She said I wouldn't make it past a day or two without breaking down

I guess I should've listened looking back cause look at me now

I see my reflection in the mirror and hardly recognize the face

I ain't run a razor across my chin since I holed up in this place

Eating ramen noodles with a plastic fork from a coffee pot

Every day I am reminded of every form of comfort I ain't got

I guess I should've listened looking back cause look at me now

A sad excuse for living, I'll admit it, since I left that town

She said I wouldn't make it past a day or two without breaking down

I guess I should've listened looking back cause look at me now

And I guess I should've listened looking back cause look at me now

I got a whole new point of view since

I headed north when it went south

And I hate to admit it, but I think

I'm finally starting to come around

I guess I should've listened looking back cause look at me now
