[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Another night, the clock screams 3 AM,
Her words cut deeper than a razor’s hem.
A broken man, I’m chokin’ on the air,
This love’s a cross I’m too damned tired to bear.
She’s spittin’ fire, I’m drownin’ in the smoke,
A hollow heart, a joke I can’t revoke.
[Chorus]
Whiskey tears and broken years,
Can’t outrun the pain, just the gears of fear.
Weed and lies, a temporary haze,
But the grave’s a bed that don’t ask for praise.
[Verse 2]
The bottle’s dry, but the ache won’t fade,
I’m starin’ down the barrel of mistakes I made.
She’s a storm in heels, I’m a ghost in boots,
Chasin’ peace in smoke, but it’s just a ruse.
The mirror laughs, “You’re a shadow of a man,”
One last breath, and I’ll let go of her hand.
[Chorus]
Whiskey tears and broken years,
Can’t outrun the pain, just the gears of fear.
Weed and lies, a temporary haze,
But the grave’s a bed that don’t ask for praise.
[Bridge]
A .45 whispers sweet relief,
A final dance with my self-made grief.
The phone won’t ring, no last goodbye,
Just the echo of a love that let me die.
[Outro]
