[Verse]
Empty bottles on the floor again
Shards of glass cut where I’ve been
His laugh still echoes
It’s in my skin
Burning like whiskey
Sharp like sin
[Prechorus]
I try to scream but the air’s too thin
Try to breathe but I’m caving in
[Chorus]
He’s smiling now
I see his face
Living his life in some bright place
But I’m drowning
Drowning in disgrace
The past won’t leave
It’s a bitter taste
[Verse 2]
Bruises fade but they never die
They hide beneath the whiskey sky
His hands on me
I don’t know why
I can’t escape
I just get high
[Chorus]
He’s smiling now
I see his face
Living his life in some bright place
But I’m drowning
Drowning in disgrace
The past won’t leave
It’s a bitter taste
[Bridge]
Flashbacks hit like a fist to my chest
No peace no rest no blessed forget
It’s all just static in my broken head
I drink to numb
I drink instead
