Well, I can't recall, one time in my life
I've felt as lonely as I do tonight
I feel like I could lay down, and get up no more
It's the damndest feelin', I never felt it before
I've felt as lonely as I do tonight
I feel like I could lay down, and get up no more
It's the damndest feelin', I never felt it before
Tonight I feel like an old violin
Soon to be put away and never played again
Don't ask me why I feel like this, hell, I can't say
I only wish this feelin' would just go away
Soon to be put away and never played again
Don't ask me why I feel like this, hell, I can't say
I only wish this feelin' would just go away
I guess it's 'cause the truth
Is the hardest thing I ever faced
'Cause you can't change the truth
In the slightest way, I tried
Is the hardest thing I ever faced
'Cause you can't change the truth
In the slightest way, I tried
So I asked myself
I said, "John, where'd you go from here?"
And then like a damned fool
I turned around and looked in the mirror
I said, "John, where'd you go from here?"
And then like a damned fool
I turned around and looked in the mirror
And there I saw, an old violin
Soon to be put away and never played again
Soon to be put away and never played again
So one more time, just to be sure
I said, "John, where in the hell do you go from here?"
You know that when a nickel's worth of difference
And I looked in the mirror, that's when I knew
I said, "John, where in the hell do you go from here?"
You know that when a nickel's worth of difference
And I looked in the mirror, that's when I knew
That there I was seein', an old violin
Soon to be put away, and never played again
Soon to be put away, and never played again
And just like that, it hit me
That old violin and I were just alike
We'd give our all to music
And soon, we'll give our life
That old violin and I were just alike
We'd give our all to music
And soon, we'll give our life
