Untitled Song About Drinking Alone

 

whiskey by midnight smells like salvation
drowning the noises
drowning the view
out on the fire escape, watching the nightlife
nightlife is old now, thinking of you

city by midnight
some kind of playground
and all of the cool kids come out and play
wicked and sexy
careless and lonely
and you're out there somewhere, dancing away


heartache tastes so good
heartache tastes so good


well, nightlife is drama, and drama is easy
love's never easy
except when it's new
but sooner or later, lovers are liars
and I'm just a liar, thinking of you


heartache tastes so good
heartache tastes so good


whiskey by morning
some kind of funeral
I bury the bottleand I don't know where I'll be
burying you
heartache is drama, sort of like nightlife
but nighlife is old
and heartache is new
heartache and whiskey, thinking of you
