Drink My Life Away

[Intro]
Morning breaks, I'm already thirsty
Lost my best friend, feelin' so lonely
My woman done me wrong, left me in the rain
So I pour another glass, try to numb the pain

[Verse 1]
Wake up with the dawn, empty in my soul
Memories linger, stories left untold
Whiskey in my hand, shadow at my side
Drink my life away, nowhere left to hide

[Pre-Chorus]
Every drop is a teardrop I can't cry
Sip by sip, I pretend I’m alright
But deep down, I know this won’t mend
Just me and my bottle, my only true friend

[Chorus]
I drink to forget, I drink to be free
To heal the wounds only alcohol can see
Lost the love that used to be mine
Living in the bottle, wasting time

[Bridge]
Night falls, shadows grow deep
Dreams haunted by promises I can't keep
Falling further from the light of day
In every glass, I drift away

[Outro]
Morning comes, the cycle repeats
Drowning in sorrow, no retreat
One more drink, surrendering slow
Lost my way, nowhere to go
