drink you away

today i tried to throw out

all the clothes you left behind

i swear that old box of ghosts

was haunting me at night

i stared down at the trash

at those pictures of me and you

i reached down and picked one out

now there's nothing that i can do

'cause it's too late to give it up once it's in my hand

and it's too hard to put it down when i can see your face again

throw one up with another round

but nothing seems to change

tip this bottle till i'm drowning

i can't drink you away

at first i thought the whiskey

was gonna keep you off my mind

but you show up more vividly

it happens every time

now this fifth of makers

yeah it might as well be you

'cause now that i've had a taste

there's nothing i can do

'cause it's too late to give it up once it's in my hand

and it's too hard to put it down when i can see your face again

throw one up with another round

but nothing seems to change

tip this bottle till i'm drowning

i can't drink you away

it's so hard

it's so hard

forgetting you

it's too late to give it up once it's in my hand

and it's too hard to put it down when i can see your face again

throw one up with another round

but nothing seems to change

tip this bottle till i'm drowning

i can't drink you away

tip this bottle till i'm drowning

i can't drink you away
