If you see her tell her I been up all night
Drinking and thinking in the pale moonlight
A bottle of fire
A match in my hand yeah I been hanging out with Uncle Daniels sipping on Jack Black laid back with Mary Jane talking to smoke rings
Trying to build bridges out of sinking sand
Blazing.Reframing the ghosts in my chest
Trying to let go But I hold on I confess
If you see her tell her I’m breaking in two
Trying to hold on to what's left of me and let go of her Holding on to the pain
Like a whiskey rebellion running through my veins
The wind it whispers like her voice in my ear
A song of regret I’m too proud to hear
I burned down the house but I kept the key
Locked in my mind where the dark sets me free
Whiskey’s my witness the bottle my fight
Drinking and thinking it’s a dangerous game
Chasing her shadow through smoke and flame
Tell her This heart’s still untaming Trying to hold on
Trying to hold on to what's left of me trying to Let go of her The stars are bleeding the moon’s gone black Every road I take keeps leading me back
Her name’s a ghost that my lips can’t quit
A brand on my soul where the fire still sits
Can’t drink her off my mind can't blaze her memory away can't kill her memory it’s killing me
I’m taking shots to the face and smoke to the lungs blazing reframing Trying to hold on Trying to let go
Let go of her Trying to hold on to what's left of me whiskey and smoke no remedy it just numbs the pain Every drop burns like the lies she told
Every flame dies but the ashes hold
I’m a rebel with nothing a man out of time
she an outlaw woman pale horse riding Ghost Rider galloping through my mind my heart she has in a lasso If you see her tell her I’m breaking in two
Trying to hold on and let go of her Holding on to the pain The bottle’s a preacher The night’s my confessional Mary Jane my therapist The stars overhead They shine so professional
But they don’t judge me They just look away
While I drown her name in a smoky bouquet numbing the pain with a bottle of Jack black and Mary Jane Confessing
