    By summer's end, I predict that I'll
    Have finally lost my mind
    The doctor said that these new pills
    Well, they might help me this time
    And I hope that's the case 'cause I feel I am wastin'
    The one life that I have
    The chances, they come, and the chances, they go
    But the time, well, you can't get that back

    And Johnnie called me late last night
    And I told Mr. Walker just go home

    Why do the demons in my mind
    Never wanna leave me alone?
    It's the pistol and the bottle
    It's the drugs and it's the throttle
    They tell me they'll make me feel alive
    But I know good and well that ain't gonna help
    I'm just praying, praying I make it through the night

    Well, I'd love to get to sleep, but I can't get too deep
    Though I'm doing the best that I can
    My mind wants to talk about everything I'm not
    Even worse, everything I am
    I tell my friends and they tell me that
    Time will only do me well
    But I won't shut my mouth, is it a rule down in the south
    That you can't talk about your mental health?

    And Johnnie called me late last night
    Well, I told Mr. Walker just go home

    Why do the demons in my mind
    Never wanna leave me alone?
    It's the pistol and the bottle
    It's the drugs and it's the throttle
    They tell me they'll make me feel alive
    But I know good and well that ain't gonna help
    I'm just praying, praying I make it through the night

    I wrote a song about bein' suicidal
    Put it on the internet and it went kinda viral
    And my old friends, we don't talk anymore
    But I still have the memories of wakin' up on their floor
    And I'm mighty proud of where I'm at
    But I'm one bad day from fallin' back
    And I'm one bad day from relapse
    And I'm gon' wind myself right back in rehab, yeah

    I ain't above it, I know I'm not
    I am blessed with everything that I got
    I thought by now these thoughts would stop
    But I still have these dreams where I am takin' shots

    Johnnie called me late last night
    And I told Mr. Walker, "Just go home," woah-oh
    I prayеd I'd make it through the night
    Now I'm, I'm wakin' up all alone

    If I ain't with thе band and I ain't on the road
    I don't know who I am when I am home alone
    And I buy all this stuff 'cause I wanna feel somethin'
    I feel somethin' for a minute, then it's back to feelin' nothin'
    All these books pilin' up on self-improvement
    How the hell can I improve if I'm gon' read, but ain't gon' do it?
    And I, I'm at war with myself
    Battered and bruised from my mental health and

    Johnnie called me late last night
    And I told Mr. Walker, "Just go home," woah-oh
    I prayed I'd make it through the night
    Now I, I'm wakin' up all alone

    Johnnie's still callin' me
    Johnnie's still callin' me (Callin' me)
    Johnnie's still callin' me (Callin' me)

    I think I'm fat, so I don't eat
    I pop a Xanny and I send my ass to sleep
    I wake up just to do it all again
    Will this shit ever end?
