Lyrics

There's a whiskey staring at me from the bottle
Its amber glow is heavy like a sin
A picture on the mantel laughs and haunts me
Your grin still lingers where you've been

And I'm sittin here playing old guitars
With scars left over stinging in the wind
The strings are frayed like my broken heart
And the night won't let the healing begin

The clock's tick tockin but the time feels hollow
Each second draggin like a heavy chain
Your voice still echoes in the shadowed corners
A melody that hums my name

And I'm sittin here playing old guitars
With scars left over stinging in the wind
The strings are frayed like my broken heart
And the night won't let the healing begin

Why does the past refuse to fade
Why does the whiskey know my pain
Why does your grin still cut like a blade
Why can't this bottle drown the rain

And I'm sittin here playing old guitars
With scars left over stinging in the wind
The strings are frayed like my broken heart
And the night won't let the healing begin
