Well I came in off a dead-end street
I walked in slow, took a back row seat
Well I knew I had nothing new to say
So many people look sober now
I couldn't help but feel bad about
Just having to be there anyway
A friend of a friend from work came in
I never knew what to think of him
He always seemed to be so insincere
I've always been afraid of a 12-step crowd
'Cause they laugh too much and they talk too loud
Like they all know where everyone should be
It's been a long long long year
It's been a long long long year
How did I get here
They was talking in a circle
I was by myself
And everyone was telling everyone how they felt
And it felt like so long since I was young
The circle kept moving all the way to the back
Well I was wondering what I was gonna say
In fact, I still didn't know
As it rolled off my tongue
It's been a long long long year
It's been a long long long year
How did I get here
So I didn't say a word all the way to the car
And then later on that night at the bar
Well I was telling everyone
How bad my life had gone
They said, "Well brother, all you need is another shot"
So I threw one down and said "Thanks a lot"
As I thought to myself
"Here we go again"
It's been a long long long year
It's been a long long long year
How did I get here
