Drink It Away
Asystole is such a lonely sound
Emptiness came crashing down
As I watched you slip away
How do I tell the one’s I love
Words are too cold to say
I pray for strength for today
Cause tomorrow I’ll just drink it away
Just drink it away
Drink it away
Little by little
The pain will lead me astray
Just drink it away
Drink it away
You were my forever
Now the past is all I have... after today
It’s the first sunrise without you
I don’t have a clue (what do I do)
I screamed your name in affray
All decisions are way too much
How do I this without you here beside me
Maybe I’ll stop at the church to pray
Or sit here on these steps and just drink it away
Just drink it away (drink it away)
Drink it away
Little by little (little by little)
The pain will lead me astray
Just drink it away
Drink it away
You were my forever
Now the past is all I have... after today
(Instrumental)
Today is the day, I’ll lay you to rest
My body and soul is so obsessed and depressed
I asked God why did he take her away
Standing here with a single pink rose
I’ll lay on your doorway as tears fill my eyes
When they lower you in that Georgia red clay
The darkness will overcome, I’ll just drink it away
Just drink it away (drink it away)
Drink it away, oh yeah...
Little by little (little by little)
The pain will lead me astray (so astray)
Just drink it away (drink it away)
Drink it away (drink it away)
You were my forever
Now the past is all I have... after today
Emptiness came crashing down
As I watched you slip away
How do I tell the one’s I love
Words are too cold to say
I pray for strength for today
Cause tomorrow I’ll just drink it away
Just drink it away
Drink it away
Little by little
The pain will lead me astray
Just drink it away
Drink it away
You were my forever
Now the past is all I have... after today
It’s the first sunrise without you
I don’t have a clue (what do I do)
I screamed your name in affray
All decisions are way too much
How do I this without you here beside me
Maybe I’ll stop at the church to pray
Or sit here on these steps and just drink it away
Just drink it away (drink it away)
Drink it away
Little by little (little by little)
The pain will lead me astray
Just drink it away
Drink it away
You were my forever
