Never Bit A Bullet Like This

I've been abused and used and skinned up and bruised 
And thrown from a movin' train 
I've been homeless, car less, lost in the wilderness 
Out in the pourin' rain 
I've been a business flop spent a year on top 
Of the most unwanted list 
But I never bit a bullet like this 

I've taken many a fall and I got through 'em all 
But I've never been hurt this bad 
You're making plans with a brand new man 
And the pain is driving me mad 
I've had to bite the bullet when things got tough 
But the sea of love has never been this rough 
And I've never been this far from shore 
I never bit a bullet like this before 
I never bit a bullet like this 

I've been tied up, fried up, chocked up and dried up 
Under a lot of stress 
I've been burned down, turned down, been run out of town 
Up to my ears in a mess 
I had a year go by with tears in my eyes 
I didn't even want to exist 
But I never bit a bullet like this 

I've taken many a fall and I got through 'em all 
But I've never been hurt this bad 
And you're making plans with a brand new man 
And the pain is driving me mad 
I've had to bite the bullet when things got tough 
But the sea of love has never been this rough 
And I've never been this far from shore 
I never bit a bullet like this before 
I never bit a bullet like this 
I never bit a bullet like this before 
I never bit a bullet like this
