Discover the story of the song > Goddamn Lonely Love – Drive-By Truckers

The protagonist feels both sad and hopeless, and he can't tell if the sadness is coming from his "green" (envy) or his "blues" (depression). He thinks about going home, but he knows his partner won't be there anymore. He feels so lonely and wants to get rid of this feeling, but he's not sure how. Throughout the song, he talks about his struggles to cope with his loneliness and his desperate desire to kill his loneliness.
