sugar high, sugar low
i'll go as far as i can go
make some new memories
the one you'd never forget
and the ones you want to forget
oh take me down under ground
bury me alongside with your past regrets


I'm not gonna let you go..
Oh no, oh no, oh no..
Not gonna let you go...


ahh sugar high, sugar low
i'll go as far as i can go
take you for a ride
the one that never end
but the one we're headed to
is a dead dead dead end my darlin'
bury me alongside with your past lovers

I'm not gonna let you go..
Oh no, oh no, oh no..
Not gonna let you go...

ooh sugar high, sugar low
i'll go as far i can go
i can't stop
take a second look at you
wondering if we did things in regret
which it never really happened in the first place
that's why i had to take a second
to step back and take a second look at you
bury me alongside with your past memories

I'm not gonna let you go..
Oh no, oh no, oh no..
Not gonna let you go...

oooh sugar high, sugar low
i'll go as far i can go
there's no off button
i can't turn you off, my darlin'
it's on replay, i keep seeing repeats
late at night, i can't sleep
memories of you on mute
black and white on a broken down television
bury me alongside with you

ooh sugar high, sugar low
i'll go as far i can go
I'm not gonna let you go..
Oh no, oh no, oh no..
Not gonna let you go...
ooh sugar high, sugar low
i'll go as far i can go
ooh sugar high, sugar low..
ooh sugar high, sugar low......

Standing beyond the mirror
Here I am with my shattered reflection
Picking up pieces of me
Seeing the blood crawl back into my wounds
I'm so wound up, I want to get around
Can't stand seeing myself in the mirror
Time to take action, action, action

Truth I need to know
Picking up after myself again
Preserving my vision of you now
There's no need for this pain
Has to happen now
What's there between us to gain
Was I taken advantage of that I will never know
I don't want to see you again

Wait for that cold hearted reaction
Trust was gone
Let me all blue
shouldn't have left me all alone
Wondering what did I do
To make this come true
You were just a lie
I tried to believe
That I cannot live
Without knowing the truth
oh no... it's true

Why do i let this happen to me
time and time again what do I do
to get over this, getting over losing you
what I did was not my fault, it was just you
Losing interest, losing that feeling
somehow it was never there
I'm tired of being used
My love was constantly abused
Take me back here
Stand in front of my mirror
Let me pick up the pieces of myself once again
Traveling, just rambling along on this lonely old road

All my life, on this journey of mine; I've been carryin' a heavy load

Still contemplating on my last trip, my mind's already full

People can say, this life got my ***** to the wall



Can't stop livin' this life, already miss my *****

My baby waiting at home, can't sleep on the wheel, or I'll end up in the ditch

Hittin' seventy five, hopped on speed

Singin' along with the radio, wishin' I had some more creed



To look forward to a better life,but nothing can beat this

Me and my rig, can you dig this

Highway is a playground, this truck is my toy

Back home, there who waits for me is my little boy



Trucker hats, cop sunglasses, even a mullet can make it a full redneck gear

Can't recall the last time I took some time off, must have been like 10 years

Screaming past rural towns, honking at hot chicks in fast cars

Every night, I'm a stranger at a run down bar



Just lookin' at the pictures in my wallet

To give up all this, hell no, I rather eat a bullet

My baby, my dog, and my little boy's waitin' for me

Freedom is my highway, this rig is my guiding light for me
HELL YEA!!
Small confession to make
Mama said, when I was born
She saw that I was a little sinner
I raised hell like the devil does
Everybody thought It was a bad thing
I dared not to think about that

(chorus)

Look father, I'm a grinder, a grinder
I grind it all out, all out
When I'm at all time low, low
I can't let things get to me now, oh now
Oh no, you know I'm a sinner, a sinner
Mama said it was true, was true
So this is why I came to you, to you...

I'm a rebel without a cause
If so, let that be the case
Let me show you the ways
It wasn't always like this you know?


Another confession to make
Mama said, when I got older
She saw that I was a smooth grinner
I got that little smirk like Elvis does
Everybody thought it was a good thing
I kept thinking about that

(chorus)

I'm a lover with a cause
If so, let that be the case
Let me show you the ways
It was always like this ya know?

Last confession to make
Mama said, When I was born
She saw that I was a little killer
I did malicious things nobody does
Everybody thought it was a scary thing
I can't stop thinking about that

(chorus)

I'm a killer with a cause
If so, let that be the case
Let me show you the ways
It was never like this ya know?
I'm the king of the entire world..
the one i live in my mind.
Solitude is what I'm trying to find
My master plan to unfurl
Unbeknown to the denominational drudges
The voices I hear in my head
urging me to go dancing with no care in the world

Jokers be laughing at me
And I wouldn't mind
Drunken lullabies lures me out
Of my dazed stance
And I can take on anyone

Said the sobriety right to my face
tsk, tsk you don't belong in this place
Go back to where you belong
no no i don't, not in that other place
This is where I belong
with the sad clowns holding me up
And I'm not alone in here...
Teary Eyes Tissues
Woman, you've got a heavy load
Trying to find that right toad
To kiss, but you've got the issues
Everybody's a joker and a prince
Everything comes with a price
Do you have what it takes?
Prince charming, but take a look deeper
He's a snake, a snake
This ain't a fairy tale
You know when a romance
Goes pretty stale
There's just no chance
Pretty Dress
Ball room dance
Bright full moon
Waiting for that perfect kiss
My queen looks for that prince charming
Lot of stress to take
No chance
Not a tock too soon
Tick Tock, Tick Tock

My Queen lost her prince charming oh no
Searching high and low
You can't get it back now
Wait a while
pop in a sad smile
You see what happens now
oh no...

There's that prince charming, but take a look deeper
He's a snake, a snake
This ain't a fairy tale
You know when a romance
goes pretty stale
There's just no chance.
Pretty Dress
Ball room dance
Bright full moon
Waiting for that perfect kiss
My queen looks for that prince charming
Lot of stress to take
No chance
Not a tock too soon
Tick Tock, Tick Tock

Here comes the joker
With a smoker on the high sticks
Coming closer to give you a kick
in the rear, in the rear
give you that wake up call
and show you the world baby
I'm a joker and i have what it takes
I'm no snake and i'm the last one you'd ever call
I'm full of tricks
and you know I can pull
Walk in the room so high with a big smile
With me you're feeling like a kite but oh no...

There's that prince charming, but take a look deeper
He's a snake, a snake
This ain't a fairy tale
You know when a romance
goes pretty stale
There's just no chance.
Pretty Dress
Ball room dance
Bright full moon
Waiting for that perfect kiss
My queen looks for that prince charming
Lot of stress to take
No chance
Not a tock too soon
Tick Tock, Tick Tock

Crash, oh no my queen lost her crown
When I had to let her go
Can't get her head on straight
She's all over the place
tipsy tipsy like a blind mice
What'cha gonna do now
Your evil sisters are out to get you
Steal the silver off the shining knight's armor
And you think everything's amour..but oh no

There's that prince charming, but take a look deeper
He's a snake, a snake
This ain't a fairy tale
You know when a romance
goes pretty stale
There's just no chance.
Pretty Dress
Ball room dance
Bright full moon
Waiting for that perfect kiss

Lot of stress to take
No chance
Not a tock too soon
Tick Tock, Tick Tock

You need to take a look at the mirror mirror in the wall
He's a snake, a snake that's what she call it
Let the joker show you the back door out of the castle
Escape all the drama and be on our way
A happy end story to it all
i'll heed to all your needs, just call
Caught you in your little affair
Eventually this had to happen
I gave away the things you’ve given to me
I’m tryin’- tryin’ to forget you
Not so hard to get you out of my mind
You came to see me one last time
Yet I almost forgot who you already
**** you keep comin' back to torment me

Take off your halo
It don't even glow
no more, i tell you woman
you brought me to an all time low
Take off your halo
don't you know
I'm done with you woman
You've lost that glow

When you changed sides
I knew the sheets has been broken into
Doesn't smell of me at all
And you're trying to give me that
I'm not so innocent look
I'm tryin' tryin' to forget you
Unraveled everything you planned to hide
The planned lies you wrote in your mind
Expected me to be a tool
I felt it was time to find
Someone else new and move on
It was time to forget but I cannot.

I'm tryin'-tryin' to forget you
Take off your halo
I'm tryin'-Tryin' to forget you
It don't shine no more
I'm tryin' trying to forget you
Take off your Halo
I'm tryin' tryin' to forget you
It don't shine no more...

In my own house, smells like you
On the couch, reminds me of you
The spot where we made love, ay
I’m tryin’ – tryin’ to forget you
The memories of you lingers on the edge
In my mind, I once dreamed of us
There’s no end to this pain
Can't you just go away

Take off your Halo
It don't even glow
No more, I tell you woman
You brought me to all time low
Take off your Halo
Don't you know
I'm done with you woman
You've lost that glow

This hardship has to end
The suffering I go through
take off, let me be alone
All this ******* aside with you,
I’m tryin’-tryin’ to forget you
Our last time together wasn't wonderful
But why did you let this come to this end
You had to play me like a fool

I'm tryin' tryin' to forget you..
Take off your halo
I'm tryin'-Tryin' to forget you
It don't shine no more
Take off your Halo
I'm tryin' tryin' to forget you
It don't shine no more...

*****.. I know your Halo.. It don't shine no more...
