Well, I've tried talking to my mama
'Cause I can see how much it kills her
To see me all strung out
But I just can't take it now
And I'd be lying if I said that I was over it
But I guess I found somethin'
To help me forget it
Part of me is addicted to the numb
And part of me just can't live with the things I've done
Yeah, 'cause the liquor and pills will take away the pain
And let me forget about yesterday
And not even you can beat the way to make me feel
And yeah, well, the liquor and pills won't break my heart
And I don't care if they tear my world apart
'Cause you already did that to me
But the liquor and pills will never leave
I used to dream about making it big
And you were always right there with me
I hope this song goes number one
Yeah, maybe you'll come back then
I see you wipe tears from your eyes
I know you think that I am heartless
You don't know, how hard it is for me to see you cry
I'm sick and tired of having these fights
I just keep hoping that one day you might
Baby, you might change your mind
Yeah, but the liquor and pills won't take away your pain
Stop reaching back to yesterday
I never wanted you to feel the way you feel the way you feel
Yeah, I never meant to break your heart
Now I'm watching as you fall apart
I'm sorry that it's all because of me
But the liquor and pills will never leave
♪
Yeah, and worst part about this
Is I'd do it all again
All the heartache
'Cause you'll always be right where mine is
'Cause the liquor and pills will take away the pain
And let me forget about yesterday
And not even you can beat the way to make me feel
And yeah, well, the liquor and pills won't break my heart
And I don't care if they tear my world apart
'Cause you already did that to me, whoa
♪
Whoa, oh
But the liquor and pills will never leave
