Blue Corn Whiskey

There’s nothing really left to be said

That’s what I’m scared of now

But it’s too early to feel better off dead.

Now once it’s out you can’t put it back

these words are running wild

And there sting no sharpness does lack

I swear

If I can’t have you

I’ll have blue corn whisky

I’ll keep drinking

Til I’m warm as your arms

Around me

I called my dad after I called you a whore

I’ll take a second alone again

Just thankful I can still unbolt the door.

I’m standing outside just catching a cold

Better than crawling on the floor

Better than hearing what I’ve told

I swear

If I can’t have you

I’ll have blue corn whisky

I’ll keep drinking

Til I’m warm as your arms

Around me

I regret all of those things that I said,

so I’m drowning them out until

All I hear is the ringing in my head.

I’m fading out now and coming back to

I’m useless to myself again

Like my heart always yearning for you.

I swear

If I can’t have you

I’ll have blue corn whisky

I’ll keep drinking

Til I’m warm as your arms

Around me
