Lyrics
Whiskey and Regret
Music and lyrics ©2024 - Mitch Cooper
[Verse 1]
There's a bottle on the table, half empty or half full
Depending on how you look at this life we pull
Each sip burns going down, but it dulls the pain
Of memories that haunt me like a refrain
[Chorus]
Whiskey and regret, they go hand in hand
Blurring all the lines that I once couldn't stand
Whiskey and regret, my nightly affair
Drowning out the echoes of a love that's no longer there
[Verse 2]
They say time heals all wounds, but they forgot to mention
How slowly it moves when you're living in suspension
Between what might have been and what will never be
Trapped in amber like some ancient memory
[Chorus]
Whiskey and regret, they go hand in hand
Blurring all the lines that I once couldn't stand
Whiskey and regret, my nightly affair
Drowning out the echoes of a love that's no longer there
[Bridge]
In the bottom of this glass, I'm trying to find
Some fragment of the person I left behind
Before the whiskey, before the fall
Before I lost it all
[Chorus]
Whiskey and regret, they go hand in hand
Blurring all the lines that I once couldn't stand
Whiskey and regret, my nightly affair
Drowning out the echoes of a love that's no longer there
[Verse 3: Breakdown]
The bartender calls last round, it's closing time
But I'm not ready to face this life of mine
Outside these walls, reality waits
With all its harsh truths and twist of fates
[gang vocals]
Whisky and regret! (whiskey and regret)
[Chorus]
(oooo)Whiskey and regret, they go hand in hand
(ahhh)Blurring all the lines that I once couldn't stand
(mmm)Whiskey and regret, my nightly affair
(oooo)Drowning out the echoes of a love that's no longer there
Whiskey and regret!!
[Final Chorus]
(oooo)Whiskey and regret, they go hand in hand
(ahhhh)Blurring all the lines that I once couldn't stand
(mmmm)Whiskey and regret, this affair must end
(ahhh)It's time to face the morning and begin to mend
Whiskey and regret (whiskey and regret)
