Whiskey Lullaby
She grabs the whiskey
And the gun
And sings her last
Lonely song
She pops it open
Takes a sip
And presses the gun
Against her lips
She rolls it once
And pulls the trigger
But it doesn't
Seem to kill her
A tear rolls down
Without a sound
Along the lines of her face
She rolls the gun
Yet again
Just once more
Pulls the trigger
Like before
But this time
The gun went off
She fell
Slowly; Silently
To the floor
She laid there
Like a fallen angel
Who lost her wings
And the sound of the gun
Echoes through the night
And the gun
And sings her last
Lonely song
She pops it open
Takes a sip
And presses the gun
Against her lips
She rolls it once
And pulls the trigger
But it doesn't
Seem to kill her
A tear rolls down
Without a sound
Along the lines of her face
She rolls the gun
Yet again
Just once more
Pulls the trigger
Like before
But this time
The gun went off
She fell
Slowly; Silently
To the floor
She laid there
Like a fallen angel
Who lost her wings
And the sound of the gun
Echoes through the night
