Whiskey Lies
Southern eyes and whiskey lies
Stars that die in your eyes
Hold my hand break me apart
Fireflies dying in the dark
How can I remember
My hearts been lying asunder
How can I forget
All the deeds that you did
Voices call their true unrest
As memories fall
They mean less and less
How can I remember
When my heart's been dead
Spirits scream inside my mind
Embers burn Im marred yet fine
Daggers tear the ties of pride
I lay and listen to you lie
How can I remember
My hearts been lying asunder
How can I forget
All the deeds that you did
Voices call their true unrest
As memories fall
They mean less and less
How can I remember
When my hearts been dead
