Whiskey On My Nightstand
Lyrics
Verse 1
Empty boots by the doorway
Same old shirt on the floor
TV glow in the quiet
Your picture face-down in a drawer
Half a sink full of dishes
Half a mind to call you up
Half a man in the mirror
Whole lot of hurt in this cup
Chorus
I’ve got whiskey on my nightstand
Tear stains on my phone
Your name in every love song
But I still drink alone
All these fears keep talkin’
Till the room starts spinnin’ slow
I’m somewhere between leavin’
And prayin’ you won’t go
Whiskey on my nightstand
You in my bones
Verse 2
Heart races like a freight train
Hands shake pickin’ up that glass
Tryna drown out the questions
How long can I live like that
Tell myself I’ll do better
Soon as this bottle runs dry
But I keep pourin’ forever
Chasin’ a moment in your eyes
Chorus
I’ve got whiskey on my nightstand
Tear stains on my phone
Your name in every love song
But I still drink alone
All these fears keep talkin’
Till the room starts spinnin’ slow
I’m somewhere between leavin’
And prayin’ you won’t go
Whiskey on my nightstand
You in my bones
Bridge
If I put this glass down
Would you still stay
If I lay my hurt out
Would you walk away (baby)
I’m tired of this darkness
Livin’ in my head
Just wanna wake up
In your arms instead
Chorus
I’ve got whiskey on my nightstand
But I don’t pick it up
Both knees on the carpet
Tryin’ to learn a different love
All these fears still talkin’
But your hand is holdin’ mine
I’m somewhere between broken
And sayin’ I’ll be fine
Whiskey on my nightstand
You by my side
