How Do You Get That Lonely - BFM Hits

It was just another story printed on the second page

Underneath the Tiger’s football score

It said he was only eighteen, a boy about my age

They found him face down on the bedroom floor

They found him face down on his bedroom floor

There’ll be services on Friday at the Lawrence Funeral Home

Then out on Mooresville highway, they’ll lay him 'neath a stone…

How do you get that lonely, how do you hurt that bad

To make you make the call, that havin' no life at all

Is better than the life that you had

How do you feel so empty, you want to let it all go How do you get that lonely… and nobody know

Did his girlfriend break up with him, did he buy or steal that gun?

Did he lose a fight with drugs or alcohol?

Did his Mom and Daddy forget to say I love you son?

Did no one see the writing on the wall?

I’m not blamin' anybody, we all do the best we can

I know hindsight’s 20/20, but I still don’t understand…

How do you get that lonely, how do you hurt that bad

To make you make the call, that havin' no life at all

Is better than the life that you had

How do you feel so empty, you want to let it all go How do you get that lonely… and nobody know

It was just another story printed on the second page

Underneath the Tiger’s football score…
