Drunk Enough

The autumn leaves fall

The summer heaves the sky

I find myself always writing songs in winter

The darker the night

The harder I try

I struggle inside with empty dreams

But you’re never quite there when I sing like I mean it

Don’t mention it

I know it’s the same old plan

Hey stranger

How have you been?

Do I look pretentious?

Tell me what else I could be

I’m a sinking stone in a shallow ocean

Bubbling till I hit the bottom

I’m drunk enough for the bitter end

What’s left of me burns the way it used to

I’m drunk enough to face this life

But when I’m sober

I’m back to you like always

Like always

The picture frame fell as you left through the door

I know I’m not a man of my word

But I’m trying

Excuse me while I write these songs to you

But I still hold back sometimes

So there’s a fire on my tongue

It burns my insides to ashes

As you’re driving away

I sing louder and louder with my burned out throat

But all that’s left is a goodbye letter

Saying that I am the one to blame for this consequence

I’m drunk enough for the bitter end

What’s left of me burns the way it used to

I’m drunk enough to face this life

But when I’m sober

I’m back to you like always

Like always

Stop

I’m not done with you

I wait on the front porch everyday

In the cold light of day

I think this is never gonna happen

But this feeling never takes me down

In spite of the mess I am in

This feeling never takes me down

I’m drunk enough for the bitter end

What’s left of me burns the way it used to

I’m drunk enough to face this life

But when I’m sober

I’m back to you (I’m back to you)

I’m drunk enough for the bitter end

What’s left of me burns the way it used to

I’m drunk enough to face this life

But when I’m sober

I’m back to you

And when I’m down

Don’t wait up for me again

Again
