Verse 1)

Woke up on the floor, same boots, same sin

Sun creepin' through a bottle of gin

Coffee’s cold and the sky’s gone gray

Ain’t felt right since you walked away

(Verse 2)

Town’s movin’ on, but I’m stuck in reverse

Talkin' to ghosts, and it just makes it worse

They say "boy, you'll be fine" — yeah, maybe someday

But this pain don't pack up, it just stays

(Chorus)

Life is hell when the fire’s in your chest

Every heartbeat just pounds regret

You pray for rain but get a drought

And all your good days just burn out

If there’s a heaven, I can’t tell

‘Cause right now, life is hell

(Verse 3)

I ride past the church with a six-pack in hand

A sinner like me don't fit in that plan

Mama’s voice echoes, sayin' "Lord, be kind"

But it’s hard to believe when you’re losin’ your mind

(Chorus)

Life is hell when the nights don’t end

When you’ve lost your way and your only friend

Is a worn-out song on a late-night dial

A cracked rearview and a hundred miles

If there’s a light, I can’t tell

‘Cause right now, life is hell

(Bridge)

And I’ve tried to climb out, Lord, I swear

But the devil knows my name and meets me there

I ain't askin’ for gold, just peace of mind

But even that’s hard to find

(Final Chorus)

Yeah, life is hell, but I keep on the ride

Down dirt roads with tears I can’t hide

Still searchin’ for grace in a lonesome song

Where the hurt is deep and the nights are long

If there’s a heaven, I’ll rebel

Until then… life is hell

(Outro)

So pour one more and wish me well

I’ll see you around
