Broke Musician by Koe Wetzel Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm 22 years old
Made the devil mad
Cause I never wrote
My whole name on his dotted line
For a fucked up music scene
He said that he can really help
Million fans and record sales
All I'd have to do is come live with his family

[Chorus]
Now my health is running downhill
Empty barrooms just won't feel
Another drunken girl is lying
Telling me, my music's great
$50 and a headache tab
All them drugs that I had to have
Promoters swearing that they're doing
All they can for me
And all I can think about
Is what I could be
Where I should be
Right now
[Verse 2​]
It's sad to say
I'm not the same
And all my friends know that I've changed
When I swore I would never turn into the man I am today
Tie me up and beat me down
Yell, "I swear I won't make a sound"
Mold me back into the man I was before I wrote this train

[Chorus]
Because now my health is running downhill
Empty barrooms just won't feel
Another drunken girl is lying
Telling me, my music's great
$50 and a headache tab
All them drugs that I had to have
Promoters swearing that they're doing
All they can for me
And all I can think about
Is what I could be
Where I should be
Right now

[Interlude]
Woahhh
Right now
Right now
Woahhh
[Chorus]
And all I can think about
Is how my health is running downhill
Empty barrooms just won't feel
Another drunken whore is lying
Telling me, my music's great
$50 and a headache tab
All them drugs that I had to have
Promoters swearing that they're doing
All they can for me
And all I can think about
Is what I could be
Where I should be
Right now

[Outro]
Right now
