Your drunken memories of me make you reach back for another.
To forget you ever knew me.
But youre married to the bottle.
Have affairs with your regret
to forget that Im just another notch on your belt.
So brush me off your shoulders and kick me off like dust.
You cover up your tracks
just to cover up for your bad luck.
So Ill take your tongue lashings.
From your tongue of flame.
You put me through the paces
but to you its just the same.
Im hoping for the worst to be over.
You speak only in slurred
words and sing in tired voice.
Im hoping for the better
but Im bracing for the worst.
So Ill take your tongue lashings.
From your tongue of flame.
You put me through the paces
but to you its just the same.
