How Far Will The Whiskey Take Me Tonight

Yeah…here we go again.

That bottle’s lookin’ like an open road,
Halfway gone and I’m losin’ control.
Every pour feels like a coin I flip,
Heads I forget, tails I slip.
Your picture’s hidin’ somewhere in my phone,
But I ain’t brave enough to scroll too close.
I tell myself I’m fine, I lie so well,
But I’m one more shot from raisin’ hell.

My buddies think I’m doin’ alright,
But they don’t see what’s goin’ on inside.
Every sip’s just rollin’ dice,
On what mistake comes next tonight.

How far will the whiskey take me tonight?
Will it drive me past your drive?
Will I end up searchin’ your name online,
Or textin’ something I can’t hide?
Will I lean on someone new,
Just to feel a piece of you?
Guess I’ll find out when the glass runs dry
How far will the whiskey take me tonight?

I swore last time was the final round,
But pain’s a tab I can’t close down.
That buzz hits hard when your name hits worse,
And I don’t know what’s fixin’ what hurts.
I could chase a stranger just to feel alive,
Or talk too much ‘bout my broken pride.
Truth is, I don’t know what’s right,
I’m just ridin’ this burn into the night.

Same story in a different light,
I swear I’ll quit come sunrise.
But right now I’m just tryin’ to find,
Where the bottom starts to feel like mine.

How far will the whiskey take me tonight?
Will it drive me past your drive?
Will I end up searchin’ your name online,
Or textin’ something I can’t hide?
Will I lean on someone new,
Just to feel a piece of you?
Guess I’ll find out when the glass runs dry
How far will the whiskey take me tonight?

Will I see your face in the pourin’ rain,
Hear your laugh in someone’s name?
I’m playin’ roulette with the pain,
And I don’t know how long it’ll play.

How far will the whiskey take me tonight?
Will I call you up or say goodbye?
Will it pull me back or set me right,
When that truth hits my bloodline?
Will I find peace or just pretend,
That heartbreak’s something I can bend?
Guess I’ll learn when I close my eyes
How far will the whiskey take me tonight?

Maybe just one more round…
Then I’ll find out.
