lyrics

Half drunk heartache, attempting to drown all my mistakes. Helpless head case, beat up and bruised in a neck brace.

Pass me another beer. I've been sitting here for four long years, waiting for things to become clear.

Half drunk heartache, drink whiskey until I've got the shakes. Hopeless, half-baked, my body shivers like an earthquake.

A shot glass full of tears, confirming all my darkest fears. I hold it in my hand and say CHEERS!

Half drunk heartache, slowly killing myself for her sake. Head rush, high stakes, as I rapidly increase my intake.

Please take me drunk, I'm home. My swollen head is full of foam. And her memory won't leave me alone.
