Bottles and Broken Promises
(mmmmm-mm) Bottle on the carpet again
Another glass to wash the taste of you
away
Pouring amber down to make it through the day
(make it through the day)
You left a hole no liquor shelf can fill
Heart's freezing over, hands won't keep still
Clock reads three, ice melted in the cup Keep checking my phone
like you might hit me up Spilled red wine on the passenger
seat
Where you used to sing along off-beat Now I swallow bitter truths
in a double shot glass Hoping the memory might let me pass
(let me pass)
Another glass to wash the taste of you
away
Pouring amber down to make it through the day
(make it through the day)
You left a hole no liquor shelf can fill
Heart's freezing over, hands won't keep still (so
cold)
Drowning every promise that we couldn't keep
Burn in my throat just so I can sleep
Friends say slow down,
but they don't know the ache Of watching every piece of your
spirit break
Bottom of the bottle,
staring at my face
Trapped inside this quiet,
empty space (can't erase it)
Is it you I miss,
or just being whole?
Liquid poison running through my soul
(runnin' through) Tryna numb what refuses to fade
Living in the mess that we made
Another glass to wash the taste of you away (wash it away!)
Pouring amber down to make it through the day
You left a hole no liquor shelf can fill
Heart's freezing over, hands won't keep still
(never still)
Just ice left at the bottom...
(yeah) Still tasting your name
