Lonesome With Whiskey Lyrics

You stopped watering the flowers so I threw 'em out

They weren't able to weather our drought

We were battered by a storm with no rain

Our love was withering in the pain

Your eyes screamed but we wouldn't talk for days

There was an empty bottle next to that empty vase

There's a price to pay for freedom

The more I drink the more I feel it

Burning me just like the memories

I guess that's what you get

When you mix lonesome with whiskey

You went to bed next to me every night

Silence laid between us when we dimmed the lights

By then my only lover was doubt

I was lonely in my own damn house

The fighting's over so it's peaceful

The loving's over so it's painful

I'm just as guilty as I am a victim

I guess that's what you get

When you mix lonesome with whiskey

What did I expect

I'm still lonely long after the bottle's been emptied

There's a price to pay for freedom

The more I drink the more I feel it

Burning me just like the memories

I guess that's what you get

When you mix lonesome with whiskey

The fighting's over so it's peaceful

The loving's over so it's painful

I'm just as guilty as I am a victim

I guess that's what you get

When you mix lonesome with whiskey
