Good Morning Whiskey

Good morning whiskey
I’ll have a double shot
Start thinking what I am 
And what I’m not

Yes I’ll take another
Just pour it in that glass
No friends around me
Well they can kiss my ass

I drown my sorrows
As soon as I wake up
I keep the door to my heart
Locked and shut

When I think about it
Something has to change
Cause that hard whiskey
Is taking away my flame

You tell me you love me
While looking in my eyes
It’s hard to see the truth
Looking through your lies

So just leave me alone
And pour me another
I’ll sit in the dark
With my demons I will suffer

In whiskey lies the solution: one dies. Problem solved.
