I think I'll drive down to my favorite spot
A place we used to go a lot
Spend our nights drinking and telling jokes
All our friends know how it happened
Everyone around here does
About how you and him ran off with my love
I'd given it to you
Thinking you would be true
I laid my heart on the line without a worry or doubt
But he came crashing in
Right between us and then
That flame between us just burned out
I eat pills so I can sleep
I smoke weed so I can eat
I drink whiskey to drown your memory
All that helps to ease the pain
Thoughts of you won't leave my brain
When my eyes are closed is the only time I'm free
When this habit kills me
And they pray over my bones
I hope that you are here
To see what you've done
I went from drinking just for kicks
To counting worms here in a two by six
And the blame belongs to one and only one
I eat pills so I can sleep
I smoke weed so I can eat
I drink whiskey to drown your memory
All that helps to ease the pain
Thoughts of you won't leave my brain
When my eyes are closed is the only time I'm free
I eat pills so I can sleep
I smoke weed so I can eat
I drink whiskey to drown your memory
I eat pills so I can sleep
I smoke weed so I can eat
I drink whiskey to drown your memory
All that helps to ease the pain
Thoughts of you won't leave my brain
When my eyes are closed is the only time I'm free
When my eyes are closed is the only time im free
When my eyes are closed that's the only time I'm free
