When life has been unkind
Into a mid-life crisis
The ones you love you hate now
He used to smile now he frowns
Gray hairs left in the shower
He doesn’t know
Don’t know why but somehow
Now it's too late, it's too late for you
Feels like time’s not on your side
Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find
He can't afford the prices for

Applying for his pension
And in the daytime

Two kids, a dog and a wife

And you’re losing your mind
And cries inside
Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find
And he can’t understand these feelings
He just sits and watches television shows

The new kitchen floor he’s buying
Look at what you've thrown away
Feels like time’s not on your side
When life has been unkind
Why life is getting him down
Tattoos fade by the hour
And you’re losing your mind

And he can’t seem to put things right
When life has been unkind

Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find
Feels like time’s not on your side
He doesn’t like to mention
So his children don't know he's heading

They stood beside you all the way
And you’re losing your mind
Now and noticing how he's finding
He's been a drunk all his life
It's been this way for a while
You feel down and blue
