Big Ugly Dog - How I Make It Through Lyrics

The shades are drawn the lights are dim
I'm sitting all alone
Listening to what used to be our songs
It may seem a little bit peculiar
But that's how I make it through
Ever since you went away

My friends have called to try and talk me out
Of this depression
But I let it go to voice mail every time
I suppose that I should be more social
But that's how I make it through
Ever since you went away

I won't go to church on Sunday morning
And I won't bare my soul in therapy
I just need a bit more time to sink a little bit lower
Before I can get back up on my feet

So I'll Irish up my coffee
In the middle of the day
Light a cigarette and watch TV
It may not be acceptable behavior
But that's how I make it through
Ever since you went away
That's how I make it through
Ever since you went away
