Last Stand

(앨범: Antique Hearts - 2006)

She was glassy eyed at the bar
Someone stole the keys to her heart
The neon lights they bent the bottles on the shelf
So she bought another round to feel sorry for herself

She'll drink when she's down
She'll drink when he's not around
She'll drink away her paycheck
She'll drink 'cause she's trying to forget

On a barstool with time to pass
She peels away the label from a longneck glass
Her cheeks are as red as the leaves in the fall
And she keeps looking down, expecting him to call

She'll drink when she's down
She'll drink when he's not in town
She'll drink away her paycheck
She'll drink 'cause she's trying to forget

The bottle's on the desktop, the guitars in my hand
Like a five star general making his last stand
With every passing second, with every painful shot
I realize just who I am and what I'm not

I'll drink when I'm down
I'll drink when no one else is around
I'll drink every dime of my check
I'll drink 'cause I got so much to forget
