Whiskey To Burn

She don't like the taste of whiskey
That ain't stopping her tonight
A little something from the top shelf
Hoping it might get her by
She'll keep ordering the double
To try and wash that single down
Oh, she's headed for a heartache
Pushing through another round

He left her here in a bottle searching for a new tomorrow
While her yesterday's still filling up her thirst
He left alone and left her lonely so damn numb
So damn empty, trying to find a way
To get on to the hurt
Oh, she's trying to get the whiskey to burn

Reckless hope will keep her dreaming
Ignore the bartender's advice
Lean in closer to a stranger
Blur the edges of the line
She just wants to feel something
Like there's something left to feel
If it don't know how it's broken
Well, how the hell's her heart supposed to heal?

He left her here in a bottle searching for a new tomorrow
While her yesterday's still filling up her thirst
He left alone and left her lonely so damn numb
So damn empty, trying to find a way
To get on to the hurt
Oh, she's trying to get the whiskey to burn

Left her here in a bottle searching for a new tomorrow
While her yesterday's still filling up her thirst
Left alone he left her lonely so damn numb
So damn empty, trying to find a way
To get on to the hurt
Oh, she's trying to get the whiskey to burn

Oh, she's trying to get the whiskey to burn
