It's funny how the whiskey Eases the pain And softens her words Rolling 'round in my brain Instead of "I'm leaving" She says "I'll be back in a little while" So hey there bartender You better hang close Cause I'm looking for answers In that bottle you hold The truth is it's over But oh what the hell If I want to go on And lie to myself That's what's working right now And I'm gonna take it As far as I need to Till my heart can make it Through one single night Without thinking of her And waking up lonely But until that occurs I'll just sit here and drink till I drown Cause that's what's working right now I tried staying home After she left But there's too many memories For me to forget And every room is haunted By a ghost that once said That she loved me So I found a place Where grown men can hide
And not be ashamed If he breaks down and cries I know I should go home But I know what's in store Hey and who gives a damn If I just have one more That's what's working right now And I'm gonna take it As far as I need to Till my heart can make it Through one single night Without thinking of her And waking up lonely But until that occurs I'll just sit here and drink till I drown Cause that's what's working right now That's what's working right now And I'm gonna take it As far as I need to Till my heart can make it Through one single night Without thinking of her And waking up lonely But until that occurs I'll just sit here And drink till I drown I'll just sit here And drink till I drown I'll just sit here And drink till I drown Cause that's what's working right now
