Nightmares & Whiskey

[Verse] Shadows creep long on the city walls Footsteps echo but no one calls A whisper of smoke from a cigarette's flame Night cracks open nothing feels the same [Prechorus] Where do you run when the night’s alive Where do you hide when the ghosts arrive [Chorus] Nightmares & whiskey burn in my veins Drown in the dark to forget the pain Scream at the moon but it don’t scream back Lost in the night on a one-way track [Verse 2] Bar lights flicker like a warning sign Every face I see wears a crooked line The jukebox moans like it’s trying to weep I drink to forget but it cuts too deep [Chorus] Nightmares & whiskey burn in my veins Drown in the dark to forget the pain Scream at the moon but it don’t scream back Lost in the night on a one-way track [Bridge] A bottle breaks like a shattered dream The streets don’t care they just watch and gleam Fingers shaking I light one more Looking for answers in a closing door
