Whiskey Burns in my bloodstream
Last chance to find some southern comfort, the worst of lovers
Before these floors change their mind
Before these lights have the night to unwind
I'm short stacked at the table
Omaha ain't been kind I'm flush out of reasons to be pumping out blinds
Cuz you're somebody's daughter and nobody's prize
And you can't be won
I read our novel it was thin and hollow
Prose in riddles with your secrets in the middle of it
Our last chapter reads like the rapture
But my every revelation is gone, long gone
Kill the lights as you're leaving
Cigarettes can hide your best intentions or the last of their kind
The clocks are all dying, dying for time
Drag your heels through the dirt
Draw a line and make it hurt
Pull my strings or let me lie
Just until the bar is dry
Your angels will haunt me
Your demons with taunt me
But nobody wants me like you do
Two devils on my shoulder
Telling me to hold you
But never let that woman get her eyes on the prize
I read our novel it was thin and hollow
Prose in riddles with your secrets in the middle of it
Our last chapter reads like the rapture
But my every revelation is gone long gone
I read our novel
It was thin and hollow
I read our novel
It was thin and hollow
