[Verse 1]
Boss said, "Pack it up"
Left me staring at the door
Then you slipped your ring off
Like I wasn't worth the war
I walked past my home
With a box and shaking hands
Three hard hits in one week
I barely could stand
[Pre-Chorus]
I stopped taking calls
Stopped answering the light
Sat in my own shadow
Tried to vanish at night
[Chorus]
Lost my job
Lost my love
Lost my place to stay
Lost my job
Lost my love
Watched it fade away
I was gone on the inside
Gone where hurt won't go
Lost my job
Lost my love
Down so low
[Verse 2]
Avoided every mirror
Avoided every friend
Kept my grief in back rooms
Till the rent ran out again
I told myself "tomorrow"
While the bills piled high
Too scared to face the hard part
So I let life pass by
[Pre-Chorus]
I hid from the cold truth
Hid from the shame
But a broken man gets tired
Of living like a name
[Chorus]
Lost my job
Lost my love
Lost my place to stay
Lost my job
Lost my love
Watched it fade away
I was gone on the inside
Gone where hurt won't go
Lost my job
Lost my love
Down so low
[Bridge]
Then one day I opened
Every shutter I had closed
Called the number on the notice
Said the words I feared the most
Took the work that paid me little
Took the help I used to mock
One slow step, then another
Till the wheel began to rock
[Chorus]
Lost my job
Lost my love
Lost my place to stay
Lost my job
Lost my love
Watched it fade away
Now I'm back on my feet, baby
Bruised but I can roll
Lost my job
Lost my love
Found my soul
