You’ve been a perfect stranger to yourself
talking in circles all the time.
You’ve been sleepwalking in the middle of the day
drinking your way right to the night
but it ain’t no fun drinking on your own.

You fooled yourself so often for so long
nothing makes sense anymore.
You’re always counting on someone else
to open up the door.
Well, the feeling is real, you can’t conceal.

You hold on to your dreams
but they never come true.
You never thought you’d wake up to
this world of blues
this world of blues.
It’s a world of blues.

You keep going places you don’t want to go, 
you make your friends feel ill at ease, 
it’s one drink down and ten to go, 
you’re flirting with your memories.
Well, the feeling’s real, you can’t conceal.

You hold on to your dreams
but they never come true.
You never thought you’d wake up to
this world of blues
this world of blues.
It’s a world of blues.
