The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

A Bottle of Gin

It’s 2 a.m.,
And I’m alone again.
This bottle of gin,
Is my only friend.

Why did you go?
Cause I need to know.
What went wrong?
You were so strong

Why did you leave me?
You didn’t think twice.
Did you feel free?
When you took your life?
Were you even thinking?
Who would pay the price?

It’s 3 a.m.,
And I’m alone again.
This bottle of gin,
Is really emptyin.

What did you do?
I really miss you.
This pain’s too strong,
And it lasts so long.

You took my heart,
When you went away.
You tore it apart,
And left me here to stay.
When did you start?
Thinkin “Nobody cares anyway”.

It’s 4 a.m.,
And I’m alone again.
This bottle of gin,
Was my only friend.

Why did you go?
I really miss you so.
Why’d you leave me?
I’m so empty.
What did you do?
I’m lonely without you.
How do I not cry?
When I say goodbye.
