My Whiskey

I was lost in the burn of a midnight glass… Talking to silence that never talked back… I kept pouring pain just to feel something Cheap smoke nights and a heart on the run Every sip was a lie I believed in Thought that fire was all I was from You walked in like a slow kind of healing Didn’t rush, didn’t try to be loud Just a look and the room stopped spinning Like calm breaking into the sound I was drowning in a bottle I couldn’t put down You turned it around… You’re my whiskey, but you don’t burn Smooth on my lips, like a lesson I learned I was going down, now I’m finally free Girl, you’re the only thing strong in me You’re my whiskey, you go down like a slow kiss No bitter after, just the love I taste I just wanna drown in every drop of you You’re the only drink I’ll ever need Used to chase every high that would fade out Every morning was a war in my head I was one step from never coming back now Walking lines I already misread But you stayed when I didn’t deserve it Held me steady, didn’t let me fall Now the fire don’t feel like a burden I don’t need it no more at all I was empty in ways I could never explain You took the pain… You’re my whiskey, but you don’t burn Smooth on my lips, like a lesson I learned I was going down, now I’m finally free Girl, you’re the only thing strong in me You’re my whiskey, you go down like a slow kiss No bitter after, just the love I taste I just wanna drown in every drop of you You’re the only drink I’ll ever need No more bottles on the floor tonight No more running from the morning light If I fall, you’re the reason I rise You’re the truth I was trying to find Ain’t no high that could match your touch Ain’t no memory pulling me too much I was gone, now I’m finally found… Since you came around You’re my whiskey, but you don’t burn Smooth on my lips, like a lesson I learned I was going down, now I’m finally free Girl, you’re the only thing strong in me You’re my whiskey, you go down like a slow kiss No bitter after, just the love I taste I just wanna drown in every drop of you You’re the only drink I’ll ever need You don’t burn… you just save me… Yeah, you’re all I need…
